New Subscriber Email

  • I am trying to send out better-looking (not plain text) emails to subscribers and have added standard, basic html. (This is based on a template that works perfectly with wp better email).

    My code starts:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;UTF-8" />

    etc.
    What is arriving at my inbox seems to be stripped out code, with a background colour that is nowhere to be seen in my html!

    Can you help or advise how we can send out a more professional-looking email please.

    Can you post a link to a pastebin that has the full HTML code you are using in the email so I can take a look?

    Hi Jeremy,

    Here’s a link to the original html file: https://github.com/haizdesign/leaky-paywall-email.git

    The plugin doesn’t currently support full email templates. It outputs your new subscriber message inside of a body tag within a prebuilt email structure. That’s why you are seeing strange results.

    Thanks Jeremy,

    Perhaps you could include that as a priority on the roadmap? Offering a full HTML template, or allowing integrations with a plugin like WP Better Emails would definitely make for a more professional-looking email. This is particularly the case when we are asking for people to pay for subscriptions.

    As a follow-on item, is there any way to enable an email validation? I saw the video shows a 2 step process but our tests are going straight through without subscribers needing to verify they are using a legitimate address.

    We will add it to our list, but this is the first request we’ve had for this feature. I can’t give a time estimate for when it will be released.

    Hi Jeremy,

    I have stripped the email code right back. It’s now recognising basic <br> and <strong> tags, but not allowing images or inline styles:

    <p style="padding-top:30px; text-align: center;"><a style="text-decoration: none; text-align: center;" href="https://our.site" target="_blank"><img src="https://path/to/logo.jpg" alt="Site Name" /></a></p>
<br>
<p style="border-top: dashed 1px #afafaf; text-align:center; padding-top:30px; padding-bottom:30px; color: #3d3e40; line-height: 1.6; font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">
Hello %firstname%, <br>

    Also, any news on email validation?
