Is it going to be possible, or is there a way that a story can be emailed to a friend with html intact? I have searched the forums, alas.

Have you tried sending the URL instead? E.g.

Hello,

Yes it would be a nice feature to send story in html format with the plain text because with in some language you can not read the email

Rocket stoves le livre
31 mar 2009 - 13:26
par Pascal B.

Lorsque Pascal Dupuis m'a présenté le concept du rocket stove, un peu avant l'été dernier, j'ai tout de suite eu envie de l'expérimenter. J'ai donc construit un modèle extérieur destiné à la cuisine. C'est vraiment idéal pour la cuisson des pommes de terre, des poissons, des viandes, la stérilisation...pas de fumée, pas d'odeur, le début de la cuisson est instantané, pas besoin de braise, économie de combustible...

jmacsnow,

You can make a characters replacement like in this hack or hack the Com_mail function and set $html = true

function COM_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $from = '', $html = true, $priority = 0, $cc = '' )

So there is a bug in that email to friend? Did you report it?

I just wonder if it is usefull to send an html email, isn`t it easier or sufficient to send the link?

Hello,

It is not a bug. By default the function do no use html for email.

Thanks for your replies. I will try the hack, Cordiste, but it will probably take me longer to decode the French. Smile
I am trying to rig up a special treat for my members. So, my work may go a bit deeper. I will get back to you in a little while.
