Triggering Autoresponder on first recurring transaction, not following transactions

[CnP.Support]

Anna,

Interesting request. Currently the autoresponder goes out when the recurring transaction posts & that is at the time of the donation when a recurring is set up as well as when the future recurring transactions are posted.

I have to think about how we can have this done only the first time.

Give me time and we will add this to release 8.0.

Hi there,

We would like to use Autorsponder to send a thank you letter to donors who enroll in monthly recurring payments, but when I check the "Recurring" box in the autoresponder settings the thank you letter is sent each month.

Is there a way to configure Autoresponder to send a message for the first transaction, but not on the following monthly payments?

Thanks,
Anna
