Adding site logo in emails

Welcome to this forum!

I noticed your new v11 and community websites include some html theme colors and that your community emails have included the site logo. Can you share the code snippet you added to your theme page so that we can add our site logo in our email messages as well like you have done?

Hi John,

My post last month explains how to customise the email template, https://totara.community/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=22131

From there to get the image to work:

Put the image into your themes pix directory.
e.g. totara/theme/yourthemename/pix/site-logo.png
Put the following snippet of code into the your email template where you want the image to appear.
{{#pix}}site-logo, theme_yourthemename{{/pix}}

Cheers

Sam

Hi Sam,

Couple things.

1. Can mustache template files be overridden using the custom scripts directory? Or do we have to create our own theme and make the changes to it there?

/theme/config.php

$THEME->doctype = 'html5';
$THEME->name = 'suave';
$THEME->parents = array('basis', 'roots', 'base');
$THEME->yuicssmodules = array();
$THEME->enable_dock = true;
$THEME->sheets = array('suave'); //I created a suave.css file and placed it in theme/suave/style .. doesn't seem to apply these changes though ?
$THEME->enable_dock = true;
$THEME->rendererfactory = 'theme_overridden_renderer_factory';
$THEME->csspostprocess = 'theme_suave_process_css';
$THEME->parents_exclude_sheets = array(
'roots' => array('totara', 'totara-rtl'),
'base' => array('flexible-icons'),
)

I created a theme/pix directory and placed our logo.png file in there. I then have the below code in the email mustache file:

<tr>

</tr>

<tr>

{{{body}}}

<br />

</td>

<td width="10%">{{#pix}}logo, theme_suave{{/pix}}</td>

</tr>

<tr>

</tr>

<tr>

</tr>

</table>

I am not seeing the logo in the emails, did i miss something?

Hi John,

I only just found your message sorry.

Did you get this working in the end, or is it still a problem?
The code you have there appears correct.
If it is still a problem are you able to share the markup that was actually received by email?

Kind regards
Sam
