Welcome Email Questions

[simetra]

Hey all! I am hoping someone can help me with this! I have copied the create_account.php over to my template folder so I can modify it there. I am able to change the text just fine but what I want to change is the actual template.

I have a discount coupon for 1st time customers and so in the welcome email it says:
Congratulations! To make your next visit to our online shop a more rewarding experience, listed below are details for a Discount Coupon created just for you! We are happy to extend a discount of 10% ...and so on but it puts this in a box with a border and a background color of yellow.

How do I get rid of the border and change the background color??? There is no reference of any of this in that php.

It also has a Sincerely, Store Owner at the bottom. I want it to just say Happy Shopping! So I put that in the place of Sincerely but I cannot get store owner to go away beneath it. What code do I remove to get that to go away?

Last question is how do I add something in the php file so it puts a space above Happy Shopping? It goes from one paragraph and on the next line it has the Happy Shopping with no space in between.

any help is appreciated as always!

Thank you!

Okay I got EVERYTHING figured out EXCEPT adding a space between the last paragraph and Happy Shopping. How do you add a space?

for those that may have the same issue as me here is how I changed all the other things:
1) Change the header.jpg logo to my logo
- I went to email/header.jpg and deleted it. I then placed my logo in there and named it header.jpg

2) Change the template colors and style
- I went to email/email_template_welcome.php and was able to change the fonts, colors, background colors, etc.. all in there!!

Now, all I have left is in includes\language\english\mytemplate\create_account.php
How do I add a space between the paragraph above my happy shopping and the happy shopping line. It used to say Sincerely, and now says Happy Shopping

Thank you in advance!

At the end of the text where you want to add the blank line, add . "\n", something like this:

define('BLAH', 'my custom text followed by blank line' . "\n");

I used this

Some of these features include:' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Wholesale Minimums</strong> - First order $100 and NO minimum on reorders!' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Permanent Cart</strong> - Any products added to your shopping cart remain there until...

This is how it gets sent:

In my html welcome email the . "\n\n" . have no effect. There are no extra lines.

I looked at the original create_account.php and can't figure out how I could enter empty lines and force a line break?

You must be using an older version that doesn't have the new-line issue working correctly.

I am using 1.3.7.

Would it be possible that I use a file in the override that has old code in it? What newer code / file would correct this problem?

As a start, check that your /includes/modules/pages/create_account/header_php.php and /includes/functions/functions_email.php and /includes/modules/create_account.php files match the current version.
