    Is it possible to enable HTML for EE-generated emails, like forgot password and activation link?

    Hi Kristen,

    Sure thing!

    You need to enable HTML Email in Admin-> Email Configuration, then edit the templates in Design-> Message Pages-> Email Notification Templates.

    That should hook it up.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Cheers,

    Ha, I’ve been building EE sites for years and I never put 2+2 together on that. Thanks!

    Hey Kristen,

    My pleasure! Admittedly, the 2 pieces aren’t exactly a dot-to-dot connection 😊

    I have modified those templates on a few projects in order to send HTML email, and it works great, but if you hit a snag, just let me know!

    Cheers,
