[Solved] Newsletter Made Simple - Can´t change template

Using CMSMS 1.0.4 and NMS 1.0.1

Sending mails works out fine but it seems I can´t choose what template to use. The emails sending out always displays with the same template.

Anyone recognizing this problem or have a suggestion what I can do?

If you create a new template (a copy of your original one f.e.) and change

{content} to {$message_text}

You have a template that can be send as a html, without the {$message_text} NMS can't replace the message in the contect-area.

This way the template should work.

BTW, while creating the message, or afterwards though the tab "messages" is the option to choose the template to be used.

I have created a template with the {$message_text} tag as you said. But this is not the problem here.

I tried the aproach to insert the HTML-template directly in the message and set the message type to "HTML-message". But when I hit the Save button I get an error message saying "Form error". I doesn´t matter what I put in the message box - text, html or nothing - I still get this message.

Since it´s my customer who´s going to use this funktion, i´m not very keen on this approach. I´d rather have the template working properly. I look in the code in the email that is sent, and I can see that it´s looking for template #27, when it should be #29. As I said, it doesn´t matter what template I choose, it always displays template #27.

The form error thing is fixed in SVN.  It has been for some time.

I solved it by hard coding the css tag in the template.
