phpwcms Support Forum

Hi,

after trying different cms during the last years i just found phpwcms. Looks solid and like it has everything needed for a professional standard site - perfect for my next project.

Just one thing i couldn't figure out: Is it possible to have templates for HTML Newsletters also? I need my Newsletters to have the same professional look like parts of the website. So it would be fine to let the user the choose from some predefined NL layouts when creating a new newsletter.

I'm quite experienced with PHP, just found no time to dig into phpwcms' code so far. So if anyone could at least point me to the right direction on how to realize this (even with some php coding) i would find my way.

Thanks.
Mike

Hi

you can use the Template-Function from FCKeditor (my editon)
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?p=48531#48531

try it here http://www.hdk-online.de/include/inc_ex ... mple01.php
use the 'Template Button' and the first Template in List

Cool, thanks.

Is this already taylored for newsletters or does it replace every appearance of FCKS on the whole site? I already found some problems with the way FCKS handles images in newsletters. (only relative URL gets used so no image is displayed at the recpient).

Since i always try to keep my installations as clean as possible: is there a chance that your changes will be included in one of the next phpwcms releases?

Hi Mike

this is a special adapted Version of FCK with some enhancements (Plug-Ins)
as you see at the ImageManger (second Button in Row) there are two Buttons for 'Absolute URL' and 'Relative URL' - for Newsletters you have to use the 'Absolute URL'

The Template is XML-Driven - look at fcktemplates.xml

Ok, thanks for your help.

FYI: Just realized that there are no scrollbars in the content area of FCK when opening the first template on your site. It works in IE but i'm using FF. Is there a fix for this?

Hi

use the 'Full Page' Button in Toolbar the first one in the first Row
it opens the Editor in a new scalable Window
