Hard to answer, if the question is barely understandable, if a question
at all. Do you mean, what options you need to set to get email in HTML
format from Trac(Notification) or TracAnnouncer, or something completely
different?

Sincerely,

Steffen Hoffmann

No, at least not yet. Your wording is still very short, but I think I do
understand your issue with some wiki text in announcements, that seem to
be in original format instead of being converted from wiki text to HTML
markup.

Sorry, but we have to repair special announcements for AccountManager
first. Since it's largely working, I judge this rather as nuisance than
as a serious problem.

You may be aware of general prejudice against HTML formatted email. And
the solid alternative is still plain text, that is preferred by many
professionals anyway. No judgment against you and your users, but don't
expect top-notch emails from Trac. This is simply no priority, unless
you provide solid patches, of course. Code rules.

Thanks for taking care. You'll always find some of working hard to
improve code quality and user experience.

Sincerely,

Steffen Hoffmann

Re: Options plugin to send email in html format?!?! [In reply to]

The Announcer Plugin does not keep the messages WikiFormatting format, then
the body of the email shows plain text.

Guess it was not a good idea to change the TracNotification by
AnnouncerPlugin. :(

A plugin to send messages in rich text format was more than happy ?!? \o/

Thanks

Hm, if you installed it, you can look at <trac-site>/wiki/TracIni for
supported options of all installed plugins. This is most relevant here:

[announcer]
default_email_format

Accepted values are 'text/plain' and 'html'.

You've certainly read the wiki documentation for Announcer, haven't you?

Sure, if that formatting thing is more important to you than i.e. per-user
opt-in/-out and other configuration options, well then stick to
TracNotification, please.

Don't get that. What do you mean?

So all the formatting of the text/plain version of the wiki text is
still there as expected but the text has been reflowed. That is, only
white space and end-of-line characters have been changed.

> Has anybody else seen this? Is there a configuration option I'm missing somewhere? Or is

I have never this but could it be that your mail reader is doing the
reflowing? Can you look at the raw mail message?

Hope this helps,

Yes, I know that, because I'm subscribed to the list.
Still my previous note applies, that fixing existing functional
deficiencies (private/single user announcements) has priority before
fixing formatting issues.

It looks like the wiki formatting is just disregarded and taken as
plain-text instead of being put through a wiki rendering process before
inclusion into the email body. So this shouldn't be especially hard to fix.

Yours,

Steffen Hoffmann
