Email Templates in SigmaPro give you full control over the information provided in email notifications. You can change the subject and body of the email for all types of email notifications (New, Updated, Completed, New Comment, New Assigned, etc). SigmaPro allows you to have custom emails for each project. To edit the Email Templates, open the Project Details and scroll to the bottom of the page. To enable the Email Templates, select the Template Type, modify as you wish and click the Update Selected Template link.

New to SigmaPro 7.0, you are no longer restricted to the length of the Email Templates. There are also several new Tags you can use in your Email Templates. Tags are indicators to inform SigmaPro where you want specific information placed when the email is generated. For example, the tag [PROJECTNAME] will be replaced with your actual project name before the email is sent out. Take a look at the image to the left showing the template of the email subject, at the time the email is created it may look something like the following: "TKT3842 - EX2 Web Site - Data Conversion - Completed".

The Tags you can use are displayed below with a description of each tag.

Custom Fields in Email Templates:  As noted below, you can display the value of a custom field in your emails. To do this, use the tag [CST::YOURFIELDNAME] replacing "YOURFIELDNAME" with the actual name of your custom field. For example, if you have a custom field named Department, your tag would look like this: [CST::Department]. These tags are case sensitive.  

When editing your email templates and inserting tags, make sure the Text/HTML Editor in DotNetNuke does not insert any HTML inside the tag. You can do this by switching the view to Text or HTML mode. If there is any HTML code within the tag, you will need to remove it before saving your template.
