ContentType

Summary

Sets the content type for email sent from eZ Publish.

Usage

 
ContentType=text/plain|text/html

Description

The default setting is text/plain which means that mails sent are written in plain text. You can change this setting into text/html if you want to send HTML formatted mail. If you do this, you must also reformat all the mail templates with HTML tags.

      This is in site.ini under [MailSettings]. You'd add it to settings/Yoursiteaccess/site.ini.append.php.

  • Changing contenttype in template

    with v.4.2 it is possible to set the mail contenttype in the template
    (e.g. in templates/content/collectedinfomail):

    {set-block scope=root variable=content_type}text/html{/set-block}

    The ini setting will be overridden for this template then.
