Email Template Adapter
Features
- - Easily change email template layout for all default templates
- - Make custom and system variables available in templates
- - Determine which default templates are allowed to be sent
- - Change the default templates outer container, header, middle container and footer through the backend
- - Configurable for all scopes (website,store,view)

What this extension does
This extension kicks into gear when the a transactional email is sent. When a default template is used it can strip away the original outer container, header, and middle container and only leave the text of the email. It then adds a new middle container, header, footer and outer container allowing you to fully tweak the layout for any specific scope. In addition, when sending a default template, it can check whether we actually want to send this template.
Install notes
- - Turn caching off
- - Re-login to the admin panel to get correct permissions
- - The default configuration has 5 custom options. You can increase this number by copy pasting more lines in the config.xml and by increasing $_customFieldCount in Adapter.php

How to transform a template
Copy one of the default templates and modify it to fit your design
- - Replace the text by “” and also add this line in the backend to “Divide Middle Container on this line “
- - Cut and paste the middle container part into “Middle Container Html”
- - Put “” in “Middle Starts Here” and make sure it is similar to what is in the original template
- - Cut and paste the header part into “Header Html”
- - Put “” in “Header Starts Here” and make sure it is similar to what is in the original template
- - Cut and paste the footer part into “Footer Html”
- - Add “” in the gap where the header, middle and footer were
- - Paste the remainder in “Outer Container Html”
- - Go to the original default template and add the additional variables, if needed
