Email templates broken

  • Hi David,

    I created a new email html template (with tables, inline css, rsvp short codes), navigated to RSVP Mailer/Email Template, created a new template called ‘template20’, pasted in my html and clicked saved. On save the box holding the new html changed to ‘<? echo $template[$index][“html”]; ?>’.
    I changed the setting to use ‘template20’ for ‘Template For Confirmation/Reminder Messages’ and ran a test. The email I received in my inbox only contains a .ics file and an unsub link. Pretty much a plain text email.
    When I reset the Email Template back to the default template I receive the same email as ‘template20’ so I’m guessing I’ve broken the email template.

    I’ve turned off email notifications for now.

    How would I get back to the original default template? And any ideas what I’m doing wrong with adding a new email template?

    Many thanks,

    Mark

    You can’t put your own PHP code in the body of that document. What you can do is add your own shortcode to replace the default one, which is [rsvpmaker_email_content]

    That default shortcode outputs the content of the event post. The rest of the template exists to set up a MailChimp-compatable HTML wrapper around the content in place of your website theme template.
