email notification as html

Just wondered if anybody could answer this question (I'm sure you seasoned pro's can). Which piece of code would I have to mod in order to make all of the email templates email_add.txt etc into html. I would prefer to have these templates looking a little more attractive to the user. First impressions count and plain text is functional yet for some people less interesting.

Apologies for the petty nature but some of us are tarts Wink

.

Regards

Which emails did you want them to be in HTML format for? You basically have to add the 'type' header in the GT::Mail calls found throughout the files in /admin/Users/*.pm.

To be honest Andy all of them email-add, delete, modify, password etc. I suspect I will have to modify defferent modules of code in order to do this?

Yup, for example Add.pm in /admin/Links/User/ , as well as Modify.pm ... those are the 2 biggest ones. You need to just add this into the GT::Mail sections found in these .pm files;

Code:
type => 'text/html',

I'm afraid I don't have time to go through and find all these for you... but once you figure out one, its pretty simple to guess where the rest of them are located :)
