How to enable the html mail formate in opencart

Hi Friend,

First sorry for my bad English.

Any one help me how to enable the html mail format in opencart.In order email how to enable the order template.Any one help me.I am new to opencart.

By default, opencart sends a html order comfirmation mail to your customer. But if it is the email sent when you update your order status(like change it from pending to shipped), only a text email will be sent.

Thanks for your replay.But in opencart how to enable the order email template. Any idea ?

I don't understand you question and get a lil confused....
If you were talking about sending a html order confirmation mail sent to a CUSTOMER. By default(which means you do not need to and cannot change it), opencart sends one to a customer once he finishes the checkout process. So there is nothing you need to do to enable the html mail feature. IT SENDS a html order mail to a customer.

If you were talking about you(as a store owner) receive a html order confirmation mail, you need to modify the core file, OR use the free Vqmod made by a super nice guy called Simon(forum user ID is uksitebuilder): http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?f=131&t=43539
Because the default opencart version only sends a text order confirmation mail to a store owner.

OF COURSE! you need to turn on this "store-owner-receive-order-mail" function in the back end!
See the attachment below for how to do it
Or you were talking about something else that I do not mention above?

Thank friend,
I need order email like this html style format any idea?

Just saying I'd like to know the answer to this. The customer gets a nice HTML email, but the store owner gets a crap e-mail with no address. I want a duplicate of the customer e-mail sent to my Admin email.

Thought this was normal in 1.4.9, but now it isn't in 1.5?

Found the answer in another thread:

Please tell me how to fill the email form. Thanks

Well, after WEEKS of having my company's IT tech look into server settings, me researching countless sites, and a ton of other things we looked into....this is how I resolved it for us.

In the "Settings" area, under the "Mail" tab.....first select "SMTP", then make sure that the "SMTP Host" is set to the same thing you used when setting up the core install. For example, I used "localhost" when setting up the core install, therefore, it was necessary to put "localhost" in the "SMTP Host" area rather than "incoming.domain.com" or "mail.domain.com"

Everything works fine with my forms/email now. Try that and let us know if that works for you.

See attached screenshot.
