Newsletter Studio will replace this with the value from that unique
member. So the basic idea is to use [#aliasOfProperty] to include the
value in the message body.
So if you have a member property with the alias "city" you can type [#city] in the body of the newsletter and Newsletter Studio will insert the content here.
NOTE: You have to active the custom data collection in the settings before this works.
I have an additional question - we have a custom member field that holds a more complex member data as a IPublishedContent (eg. content picker type property) in a member type.
Is it possible to replace properties of that content picker type in the email body, eg. content picker is a member property called memberContent and it's IPublishedContent type so cannot be as such inserted as a string to the email body, but properties of memberContent can?
eg. [#memberContent] cannot but can [#memberContent.city] for example?
We will not try to understand complex data types on the member, if you need this I would recommend that you implement a custom "Merge Field Provider" and inactivate the built-in one.
Merge custom fields from Umbraco Member
Is that possible? Is it something that I would need to custom code in a custom Render Task?
Any chance you have an example?
Hi!
You can include them in the content. There is some documentation here: http://support.newsletterstudio.org/customer/en/portal/articles/2115462-custom-data-fields
In a nutshell:

Great this is possible!

Hi!
Please note that this is a old post for Umbraco 6 or 7.
We will support this but the syntax is different for the newer versions. There is more info about this in the Merge Fields-section on this page: https://www.newsletterstudio.org/documentation/package/12.0.0/concepts/email-editor/
