Last week, I think it was, Lonestar asked me if I wouldn't mind working on a template system for the various emails that the CMS sends out. Well, after some thinking, I decided to write up a simple system that will not remove anything, but make it so you can create an HTML template, and upload it to a certain location with a certain name. If you have that file there, then it will use that template rather than the language the system already uses.
Currently, I have the first step working on the site here, so you can send your self a PM, you will get the basic HTML Template that I wrote up for testing. When released, I will have a write-up for all themes and commands for each.
I may need a couple of testers for this, maybe not. I will keep you guys updated on the progress. You guys should be seeing more info on this in the next few days.
Here is an example of the HTML email that gets sent right now. Like I said, it's just a quick template:
The new look can be seen in this post:
Update: I have 19 templates done, ATM:
I am sure there will be more to come.

Nice work coRpSe, looks great.
This is an excellent Idea
Thanks. I am adding in more functions to it, so you can customize it a bit more. I will probably do an example video tomorrow or something on it.
Okay, I just spent that last few hours writing up the custom template controls. Here are what they are:
Some are default of what is already there, some are custom to allow for more customization. There are some default ones, that I am not sure why they are there, but, what ever, I am not going to remove them.
Funny thing is, while doing this, I found some issues in the groups, and let Lonestar know about them. I also found a broken page in the Black Magic theme, which I have fixed. I am going to double-check to see if it's already been fixed by Lonestar and if not, I will make a post with the fix.

Okay, with what I have, I did write up a default template for my site here, but also did one that I will ship for others to modify. Here are a few examples.
That is the one I made for HSX, and here is a short video of the ones I did that will be given with the release of this:
I will be writing a whole post on this probably this week/weekend sometime on how to write up an HTML template for emails. They are a bit different from if you were to write one up for your website.

Updated again. I went from 6 templates for 6 different emails to 19. I have updated my first post.
Again great work coRpSE, thank you.
