Footer at bottom of automated emails?

Hi there,

At the bottom of the automated Discourse emails that get sent to users (such as the automated emails that get sent to users when they are subscribed to a thread), is there a way for me to add a “footer” at the bottom of the emails?

This “footer” would just be a single line of text that says who the sponsor of the forum is. So it would be like a “one-line text advertisement” at the bottom of the automated emails.

I went into “Admin > Customize > Email Style”, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it.

Any thoughts on the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Scott

I think this should help: Customize and style the Discourse outer email template

You’d likely want to add your footer content here:

Thanks, @awesomerobot!

That was actually exactly where I added my text before posting to these forums, but it came in all weirdly formatted. It was a completely different font & size than the rest of the text, and it was pushed up against the left margin with no spacing between it and the next (auto-generated) line provided by Discourse.

Do you have any idea how to format the text properly on that line?

Thanks,
Scott

I would also love to have the option to set a footer for all email templates, this is required by GDPR.

Footer at bottom of automated emails? - #2 by awesomerobot works only for the HMTL version of the email, not the plain text view.

Sure I could apply it to all of the templates but as soon as a new email template is added to Discourse, I would miss to add it so a base footer for all templates would be amazing.

What text is required by GDPR in emails sent by Discourse that is missing? I don’t think there is anything you need to do here. We have many sites in Europe that have to comply with GDPR and we’ve not heard this before.

You’re right, as those emails are only system mails, it looks like it is not required :thinking:
