Email Templates
Your WebAlliance website generates and sends several types of emails for events such as a new user signup, password recovery request, and a checkout completion. Use the Email Templates tool to edit the templates that generate these messages.
From the Admin panel, select Site Manager>Email Templates to edit the content of system emails.
You must be a SuperAdmin or an Admin with the Content Area role to access this feature.
When using an Automated Email Job, the Automated Job setting for the subject line field will ALWAYS be used. The Email Template's subject line will not be used. This means that leaving a blank "Subject" field in the Automated Job configuration will send an email with no subject line.
Select the Template to Edit
Select the appropriate template from the list on the left-hand side of the page. The name of each template is fairly descriptive. Contact Aldrich Web Solutions with any questions.
Make your Edits and Save the Template
Use the text editor to make any desired changes to the template. The placeholder values such as [NAME] or [USERNAME] must be entered exactly in order to make the template pull the correct value on a per-user basis. Click "Save" when finished.
"Validate" is used primarily at site launch, and as a troubleshooting tool.
Test it out
When you've selected a template, you can click "Test Email" at the top of the page to send a test of the selected template to yourself. Click the button, and you'll see a popup box asking for the data you want to include. It can just be nonsense because it's coming back to you. The template will be built, and you can enter data to replace any placeholder that's on the email template.
The test email will be sent to the email address that's attached to your WebAlliance Admin account.
