HTML Formatted Emails ​

It is possible to use HTML coding in Student Manager Email Templates if you follow these rules:

Opening/Closing HTML Tags ​

You must put the opening <HTML> tag at the beginning of the Header text and the closing </HTML> tag at the end of the Footer text in any email template you want to format as HTML.

We also recommend using the opening and closing <body></body> tags. The tags should be placed after the <HTML> tag in the Header, and before the closing </HTML> tag in the Footer.

You may also use the HTML Editor to apply HTML formatting to your email template.

Template Coding ​

You must follow the appropriate Email Template Coding rules:

Including Images ​

  • Images must be placed on your web server.

<img src="http://www.yourwebdomain.edu/images/yourimage.jpg">

  • You must use the Full URL in your img src value (see above example).
