Your posted enquiry and codes above are incomplete. It does not indicate with OC version you're using nor at which moment during checkout you are wanting to implement your contract controller file. However, the way you describe the problem above is that you should rather use a return statement with your controller in order for a core checkout controller to obtain that first name by using something like:

Code: Select all

$data['contract_firstname'] = $this->load->controller('checkout/contract');
Then, somewhere in the checkout TWIG file where, again, the enquiry above does not mention where during checkout you'd like to implement your contract, you could use:

Code: Select all

{% if contract_firstname %}
{{ contract_firstname }}
{% endif %}

Dedication and passion goes to those who are able to push and merge a project.
