Formatting of Approval Email – need to hide tags

Hello,

We are having the same issue here. Did you manage to resolve it?

Hey there – I found the solution that worked (for me, at least). Go into your functions.php file and put this:

add_filter( 'new_user_approve_approve_user_message_default', 'wpautop' );

My e-mails are now delivering without the p tags.

You are a frigging genius. That fixed it, I think.

Awesome – glad it worked! If it stops working for any reason, be sure to pass the word along.

Well, I spoke too early. The DENIAL looks good now – but it took all of the paragraphs out of the APPROVAL email, and I don’t know how to fix it. Can you help?

I figured it out. You need to add this in total:

add_filter( ‘new_user_approve_approve_user_message_default’, ‘wpautop($br)’ );
add_filter( ‘new_user_approve_deny_user_message_default’, ‘wpautop($br)’ );

This fixes it for BOTH emails and it also preserves the breaks as it should. Now all I have to do is figure out how to get it to actually display the password reset link. Not even sure if I need it, the way I have it set up.

OK cool! Good to know. Love it when the community shares answers. Thanks!

you bet.
