No option to configure outbound emails as HTML

[adrya.stembridge@…]

I've installed TracAnnouncer 1.0dev-r12503 and users are able to subsribe (watch) tickets, and are receiving notifications of tickets they submitted. That is working well.

I am not finding an option to enable HTML and the outbound notifications are still plaintext/wiki markup.

Here is my config:

[account-manager]
db_htdigest_realm = 
force_passwd_change = true
hash_method = HtDigestHashMethod
htpasswd_file = /my/path/trac.htpasswd
htpasswd_hash_type = md5
password_store = HtPasswdStore
persistent_sessions = true
refresh_passwd = False 
user_lock_max_time = 0
verify_email = true

Assistance/pointers appreciated.

Is this hack officially dead?

You've filed this ticket against the TracHtmlNotificationPatch, but it seems you are using the AnnouncerPlugin.

[Ryan J Ollos]

You have set default_email_format = text/html, which is good, but this can be overridden by the user preference. You can find this described here: AnnouncerPlugin#Distributors.

So I went to look for the email preferences panel that allows setting the email format preference. I can't find it anywhere! It seems this was removed as "deprecated code" in [9227] and I don't see it called from anywhere else now. hasienda, this change precedes you, but do you have any historical knowledge of this? The template​ still resides in the source code, but it's not utilized.

Which version of Trac are you using? Have you used previous versions of AnnouncerPlugin, or is this a new install?

Please upgrade to Trac 1.2, which has integrated the core of AnnouncerPlugin. Please raise the issue on the ​trac:MailingList if you encounter the issue with Trac 1.2.
