Installed Simplenews for the Llandudno web site. Followed all the instructions but the e-mails were still in text.
Installed Mimemail and its related components. Still getting text but with HTML markups.
24/4 Getting an HTML e-mail
Disabled mimemail and enabled HTML mail - still text
Setting HTML mail configuration under admin/config. I set it to:
- Use the default template
- Use Danland (my site theme)
- Use full HTML
RESULT : sending a test email from HTML email using HTMLmailsystem and ensuring that the mail was sent in HTML gave me an HTML result.
To get Simplenews to send a basic e-mail, you still need to set the Sitewide defalt to HTMLMailSystem. I also added a new setting for Simplenews using simplenews as the key - I think this may mean that I can use HTMLMailSystem for some modules but not for others - but I'm not absolutely sure!
Resulting e-mail (sent as a test) :
- Sent the e-mail in HTML
- Included the embedded picture
- Included the unsubscribe facility
Using Simplenews, you modify the relevant file (htmlmail--simplenews.tpl.php) to suit your requirements (I added a blue border and a Llandudno Sports Club heading) and it should send in that format (worked for me).
