    Default Order Status Email - Change colour of comments

    Hi there

    I am just wondering if it is possible to change the colour of the comments you write in an order status update?

    For example, when you add a comment when updating the status the customer receives and email that has 'The comments for your order are: XXXXXXX' is it possible to make only XXXXX a different colour so it stands out well against the rest of the text?

    Default Re: Order Status Email - Change colour of comments

    Sure it's possible! You'll need to touch PHP and CSS files, so you'll have to be comfortable with that. If so, read on.

    Start by opening admin/includes/stylesheet.css and go to the bottom. Make a new entry for your desired color and styling, something like...
    Code:
    .colorComments{
      color:#FF0000;
    }
    Save and close the file.

    Now open admin/orders.php and find this somewhere around line #556
    Code:
    <td class="smallText" align="center"><strong><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_COMMENTS; ?></strong></td>
    We need to edit the section highlighted in red. Change it to read as follows:
    Code:
    class="smallText colorComments"
