I thought I remember seeing somewhere a solution to formatting the invoice that comes across the emails? I can't seem to find it anywhere.....

Is there a spot where all of this is stored? Maybe CSS?

Under STORE ADMIN go to EMAIL MESSAGES. There you can format all emails.

Thanks Marshall, I did venture there but what I was hoping was to control the container.

Currently the email comes in... and if you stretch the window out the invoice stretches...

I want to control all of that....

I'm assuming it's controlled during the PHP process of rendering of the invoice. Just wondering if there is CSS involved that I could get my hands on or is it all inline?

Ugh so many questions.

I did look at your offering...

So my question is: Does this control the final look of the emails being sent out automatically? Or do I need to generate an alternate manual email from within the admin section?

Hi Terry, there are quite a few websites out there that will help you create an email template that is mobile friendly.
You can design your own email and you basically just put the %messagebody% where you want the receipt (content) to show. The rest is up to you.

Here is an official ect page on that - https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/email-messages.asp#email

Sure, you can control that... Just like you would a webpage.

Thanks,
David

Terry, you set the width of the "Email Headers / Footers" message by wrapping all content inside a Table.

<table width="750" color="#000000" font-family="Arial" font-size="14px" font-weight="normal" margin="0"><tbody><tr><td>

<p style="margin: 0; padding: 0">%emailmessage%</p>
<p>Regards,</p>

</td></tr></tbody></table>

Hi Terry, there is not one there to edit the reset password email.
That email is pretty straight forward with a link for the customer to go back to the site.

What did you want to personalize on the reset password email?

:EDIT: I just checked that on my site, and looking in the languagefile, I don't see any parts of that text. I expect it's hard coded, and Vince could probably confirm that.
This might be a good one to add to the suggestions forum. I can see where it might nice to brand it with a logo at least.

Thanks,
David

Is it these language file settings you are looking for?

$GLOBALS['xxForPas']='Forgot Password?';
$GLOBALS['xxLosPw1']='We received a request to reset your password for your account at ';

Thanks Vince,

But I'm looking to redo the look of the email that comes through when someone wants to reset their password....

I'd like to put my logo and a wee bit of flare to it.
