Send emails with HTML as HTML · **Released**: 01-25-2007

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 <br /> 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!

It's based on the PHP strip_tags function. So anything it recognizes as a HTML tag would be supported.

I haven't tried it yet, but I'd be very surprised if it didn't. Anybody else try it on 3.6.7

Hi.

is there a way to make this mod also work for sending html-rich email notices (such as about new replies to a topic the user subscribed to) ???

It looks for proper HTML codes such as <b>. So any email that gets sent out with an HTML tag in it will be sent as HTML.

So you could change the phrase that is used to send out new replies notices to include at least one HTML tag, but be careful! Note that that carriage returns in the code will need to be changed to <br /> and it may need some other formatting changes to render correctly in HTML.

excellent mod lol

works perfectly on 3.6.8

Actually it don't. It works perfect for sending. Sign yourself up as a new member and look what the new activation email looks like when it sends it to you. To avoid that I just install this mod when I use it to send html email and uninstall it when I am done until someone comes up with a fix.
