Table Of Contents
Properties tab
The properties for an Email section are minimal and contain the following options:
l
Name: Enter the name of the Section in the Email Context. This has no effect on output.
l
CSS mode: In the Designer, CSS files can be used to style email templates (see "Styling
templates with CSS files" on page727) but eventually, the formatting must be applied in a
different way since email clients do not read CSS files. This property determines if and
how the styles in linked CSS files are applied to the output.
l
Write CSS to <head> section: The content of linked style sheet files is copied to
<style> elements in the <head> of the HTML. (This is also known as "embedded
CSS".) With this option email gets sent faster; however, email clients may not
support <style> elements in the <head> and the order of the CSS rules could be
different.
This is the recommended setting, and the default setting for new templates.
l
Apply CSS properties to elements: The relevant CSS properties are copied to the
<style> attribute of the various HTML elements.
This is the default setting for templates made with PlanetPress Connect versions
prior to 2020.1.
l
Do not inline styles: No styles are copied from linked CSS style sheets. It is
assumed that you format elements locally or use a CSS inliner tool.
Note
It can't be guaranteed that content will look the same in all email clients, particularly
when it comes to older client versions, so it is recommended to always test and
validate the output. See: "Testing Email output" on page1473.
l
The Meta Information group lists all <meta> tags that will be added to the header of the
email. See "Meta information" on page516.
l
When the option Append plain-text copy of the HTML is checked, a plain-text version of
the HTML is added to each email that is sent. With new templates this option is checked
by default.
