Comments.Text: ok so the issue of course if folk can have multiple memberships, so if you are starting from a 'contact' there is no automatic logic as to which custom-membership field to go an grab. if it is always going to be latest_membership then it may be possible to create such a token (that is generic) and add to the above extension - otherwise you might find a custom solution/extension the quickest way to get what you need.

  I use a custom field in my membership records (Reference code). This custom field {membership.custom\_8} i can use in e-mail reminders of the type membership that i use to warn members about an expiring membership. This works fine.
  
  When i renew a membership i want to send a confirmation e-mail to confirm the renewal. To accomplish this i created a reminder of the type Activity. In the e-mail template i would like to use the custom field mentioned before. The e-mail is sent okay but now the custom field is not displayed.
  
  Any help or advice would be appreciated.
