Send emails with HTML as HTML

UPDATE: I have tested this on 4.0 Gold and it works! I have released it here:
http://ww.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=231532

Hi Folks,

Here's a nice little pluggin (No Code changes!) my programmer (Bryan Harris) came up with that sets the email type as HTML if the body of an email contains any HTML.

This is very powerful and flexible, but also a bit dangerous. This means that any email your system sends out that contains any HTML will be sent as HTML. Which means that the whole email should be formatted as HTML.

So for instance, it makes it very easy to send HTML emails from the ACP - Just include HTML in your message! Same goes for users sending private email.

You'll also need to update some of the stock phrases for the registration confirmation email, password change, etc, that contain links or other HTML, and add line breaks so they still format correctly. And while you're in there you could add your logo and other nice touches!

It's just one pluggin!

Install time: a few seconds!

This is my first published mod so go easy on me. I'm not up for a bunch of support, but it doesn't seem like much should be needed.

And I'd appreciate it if you clicked Install if you use it, and while your at it, nominate it for MOTM!

Can you include the HTML Message Editor?

What HTML message editor? Do you mean the advanced Editor and then swap the BB code for HTML? That would be rather cool and convenient, but perhaps someone else could add that!

Is this what you are talking about? I might get there eventually, but you or anybody else are welcome to do that and post it as your mod!

Yes, I think this HTML Editor With Advanced Tool bar would be very helpful for writing HTML or BBCode Email Message. :)

Yes that would be a great idea, of course! :)

No one asked, so Im curious, is it possible to send html thru the public email contact form (sendmessage.php)? if so, I'd be very worried.

If its an admin only function that works only thru the CP, then I'll gladly install.

Thanks

for example;

Code:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--

google_ad_client = "pub-7480331696500728";

google_ad_width = 234;

google_ad_height = 60;

google_ad_format = "234x60_as";

google_ad_type = "text";

google_ad_channel = "";

//--></script>

I don't understand your question, do you want to include a google ad in your email? AFAIK, google does not support ads in email.

bchertov there should be options if all users or only admin can use it.
Also in what emails html should be used - I dont like to edit all email phrases and add because of that.

This is not a bad plugin, but there need to be improvement.

Before I install, where do I edit the stock phrases and put in the code?
I don't want to mess things up.

I was looking for this for a good while, with this info I'll install.

Thanks,

Note that you can search by the phrase content or by the phrase name. You may want to consult the vb manual for a little background on phrases. You want to look for any emails that your system sends out, such as your "welcomemail".

Pay particular attention to the phrases that are of phrase type "email body text".

I found these phrases located under "email body text", now, do I need to erase these and put in my HTML codes in them?

This is what is in my "welcomemail"

Yes! To have it appear the same, you'll need to add for each carriage return. So that's one at the end of each paragraph and another for each new line.

i love such elegant solutions, to think i was about to hard-hack about 5 different files! Thanks

excellent, I was just looking for somethings like this. To get around members sending html email I simply disable right after I send out my emails through the acp, though an option to only allow html emails to be sent from the acp would be great

Do you need to add a and a ? or just the break.

..or can I dress up the Welcome Message using html..??

@bchertov

Would the receiver of the e-mail see the e-mail in HTML if they had their e-mail setting to read in plain text only?

I use to e-mail my members in HTML, but some of them complained because they just saw the HTML code as they where reading the mail in plain text.

Thanks,

Patrick

The will give you a carriage return with no blank line and a will give you both. Personally I like to code with a for every carriage return (adding an extra for a blank line)

Ok, thanks bchertov. How did you help the members switch?, did you post a "How to change your e-mail setting" for each mail client on your forum?, cause that would be a good idea.

Thanks,

Patrick
