Making changes to the Email Message
Adjusting the email messages to better suit the characteristics of your store is encouraged. However, caution should be taken when altering the contents of a Store-Generated Email Message.
Some things that can cause the template to appear blank or broken are:
-
Beginning/ending QuickCode Block or IF tags not having their associated tag present.
example
-
Excluding a curly bracket "{" or "}" from a QuickCode tag, will cause issues. An example of this would be, if you were to exclude a curly bracket from {PRODUCT-PRICE} -- such as {PRODUCT-PRICE -- it would not translate the QuickCode Tag.
Incomplete QuickCode Tag.
tip
If the template is broken with no turning back, there is a solution! On the Related Pages bar, above the "System Email Info" section, there is an option titled, Reset to Default.
This will set the email message back to its default - before any changes were made.
