Let me clarify… I realize I am supposed to put html/css into the email template, but I see no way of setting a type of {TABLELINKS} that includes the featured image and an excerpt. As I said above, my clients do not want per-post emails. They only want a daily digest. Thanks.

Hi again Matt,

Please tell me you are NOT saying that I can only include a single image and a single excerpt. I asked you clearly (above) whether I could include an image and an excerpt FOR EACH POST IN THE DIGEST. Your response (above) was an affirmative, to me. Am I missing something here?

Oh, thank goodness!  So then where do I put {IMAGE} and {Post} in relation to the {TABLELINKS}? Or do I get rid {TABLELINKS} altogether?

Hi Matt,

Ok I got rid of {TABLELINKS} and put in simply {IMAGE} {POST} with nothing else.

The digest email shows the title, the image, then the excerpt. So now how can I style these?

The first thing I need to change is to show the thumbnail version of the image rather than the full-size image. Can I do that?

Then, can I align the thumbnail to the left so the excerpt appears to the right of the thumbnail?

And can I make the title an H2 tag?

Thank you! This is what I wanted to know. I have one more question, though.

Where do I add the filter code you provide above for using the thumbnail image? Which file do I put it in? I am not sure what a “custom site plugin” is.

Thanks again.

Wow! That worked great. I just created my first plugin. Thanks! I was also able to tweak the php to make the title H2.

The only difficulty I am having is setting the thumbnail image to align=”left”. I presume I would put it somewhere here:

            if ( strstr($mailtext, “{IMAGE}”) && current_theme_supports(‘post-thumbnails’) ) {
                $post_image = get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, apply_filters(‘s2_image_size’, ‘full’));
                if ( $post_image != ” ) {
                    $message_post .= $post_image . “\r\n”;
                    $message_posttime .= $post_image . “\r\n”;
                }
            }
            $message_post .= “”;
            $message_posttime .= “<br />”;

Do you know where/how I would do that?

Thanks!

It did not work.

So how do I include the theme css? That would probably solve all my problems. I use the Atahualpa theme. My css is stored in the database and is included inline with each page view.
