#### Latest Update

**Email Templates v1.5**

**Text box implementation**
 Added a text box above the slider so the Administrator
can manually enter the number. In the color option, the admin can select the color
from the color grid and can also enter the color code manually.

**Template Settings**
 Gave the option a particular name called “Template Setting”

**Relocated the \*\*Border Color** option in Template Settings**
 Now, the Border
Color option would appear after the **Border Right Width** option and above the **
Border Radius** option to define the border widths properly.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options For Template Settings**
 Some option names,
such as ‘bottom padding’, ‘Custom css’, and ‘box shadow’, have been capitalized 
for better readability.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options for Email Header**
 Spelling Corrections,
Capitalization, and the Renaming of options in the Email Header tab.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options in Email Body**
 Spelling Corrections, Capitalization,
and the Renaming of options in the Email Body tab.

**Slider Issue In Footer Text Padding Top And Footer Text Padding Bottom Options**

Added a textbox to manually adjust the slider in the ‘Footer Text Padding Top’ and‘
Footer Text Padding Bottom’ options in the Footer tab.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options in Footer**
 Spelling corrections, capitalization,
and the renaming of options in the **Footer** tab.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options in Subtitle Styles (WooCommerce)**
 Spelling
Corrections, capitalization, and the renaming of options in the **Subtitle Styles(
WooCommerce)** tab.

**Dropdown Menu was not appearing correctly**
 The dropdown menu was appearing incorrectly,
and the first option should be selected by default since it works like that in the
previous options. Now it has been fixed.

**Order Table Styles option | No reflection in real-time**
 Previously, this option
was not reflecting any change when any sub-option was selected from the dropdown
menu. It has been fixed now.

**Product Image & Product Image Size options | No reflection in real-time**
 Both
options (Product Image & Product Image Size) were not reflecting any change when
any sub-option was selected from the dropdown menu. It has been fixed now.

**Order Table Border Color option | No reflection in real-time**
 Previously, this
option was not reflecting any change in real time. Now it has been fixed.

**Order Table Heading Style option | No reflection on real-time**
 Previously, this
option was not reflecting any change in real time. Now it has been fixed.

**Slider issue in Footer Text Padding Top/Bottom, Left/Right, and Border Width options**

The numbers were not appearing on the slider in the **Padding Top/Bottom** and **
Padding Left/Right** options in the **Footer** tab. Now it has been fixed by implementing
a text box so the admin can manually enter the numbers.

**Enable order notes to be moved bellow option | Spelling mistake and No reflection
on real-time | Order Items Styles (WooCommerce)**
 Spelling correction was made,
and real-time reflection was fixed.

**Rename the “Clear” button to “Default” in color grid options – Order Items Styles(
WooCommerce)**
 The color grid option had the option name “Clear” which has been
replaced by “Default” for better user understanding.

**Rename and Capitalization of Options in Order Items Styles (WooCommerce)**
 Spelling
mistakes and capitalization of words were corrected in various places.

**Button Font Size option Slider issue in Button Style (WooCommerce)**
 The numbers
were not appearing on the slider in the **Button Font Size** option in the Footer
tab. Now it has been fixed by implementing a text box to enable the admin to enter
numbers manually.

Some personalization have disappeared so some styles are forced now…And worse, the“
Test mail” functionality seems to have been removed !!Sorry, was using this plugin
since years but I’ll move to another one…

This plugin has added an unwanted and unsolicited banner ad for another plugin into
my wp-admin dashboard and it’s currently impossible to remove it. If it’s not fixed
quickly I will look to use another template design option since this is malicious
behaviour.
