HTML format email templates
Posted by Zach Branch | Product: Vacation Rental Script | 2 Comments
Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and I've got an issue I need help with. I'm using the Vacation Rental Script product offered by you guys. We have an email template called confirmed-booking, so when someone finishes the booking and payment processes, they receive and email informing them that their booking is confirmed. The issue is that I want to format the email with HTML so that when the person sees the email, it's not just plain text, but rather fancy looking. How would I go about that? Please and thank you!

I know the sort of reply you want to give, most email clients will allow you to write a template in html or plain text. Are you using a hosted email client to send your booking confirmations?
If you are there should be an option to set up a HTML email that can use images.
It better to use this type of email, as you can never know if the person receiving the email has their set up to receive plain text.
I fyou go down this line test it a few times by sending it to a few different email hosts (aol, hotmail, gmail, yahoo, outlook, etc), it will give you an idea of how it looks when received.
All else fails look for an email template package, shame php jabbers don't offer one as the sofware is pretty reliable.

Hi Zach
read your enquiry and thought, that's me a few months back, I love not only this site and all their scripts and help, but Themeforest is awesome and the prices are great.
What I have used is a couple of the designers templates and all work brilliantly.

The funny thing at the moment,(will change soon though) is the email newsletters are set up in the old school tables, there is a generation of designers who would not have worked with them, as CSS is the norm now.
Try Themeforest out, do a search for 'email newsletters' quite a choice.
