I am attempting to include the Participant ID in the email sent to the participant upon successful event registration. I have searched documentation and previous questions/answers, but no luck so far. I was able to get the Participant ID on the Thank you Screen using info from a previous question -- involved changes to DisplayProfile.tpl But it is not included in the confirmation email. There were some older (2010/2011) questions that referenced using the email workflow templates, but they were not specific enough for me as to where to put the {ParticipantID} token.

Susan, Welcome to CiviCRM stack exchange. Its possible to add Participant ID in email sent when a user registers online. You need to update the message template to include the {$participantID}
token which prints the participant ID when rendered.
To update the message template navigate to CiviCRM >> Mailings >> Message Templates. Locate 'Events - Registration Confirmation and Receipt (on-line)' under 'System Workflow Messages'. Click Edit. Modify the message template to include the {$participantID}
token either in subject, html or text field.
