Customisation and email

I’ve answered the first question myself. Just wrapped the auctions shortcode in a div and edited my css accordingly. Perhaps not the most elegant solution, but it does the trick.

Question 2 however is something I can’t seem to find a fix for yet… anyone got any ideas?

It seems that after I installed and activated the WP Mail SMTP plugin, the emails are being sent.
A follow-up question that pops up in my mind is customizing the content of the email. At the moment it displays the product url, product name, bid value and product description.
I would like to change this so that it displays something like User X made a bid of .. Euro’s on product Y.

Owell, the plugins out-of-the-box functionality seems to work fine now… Would have liked a mention about a secondary email plugin though.

Thanks for the reply, @payalrajyaguru
Will have a look at this.

Hi @torokzsofi

Firstly my apologies for the late reaction. Wasn’t on here for a while.
To answer your question; I first added the shortcode to the auction stuff in my template. After that I wrapped that shortcode into a div, like so…

<div class="classofdiv">[add php shortcode here]</div>

After that I edited my css for the auction like so…

.classofdiv .auctionelement { add styling here }

Like I said in a previous message, this might not be the most elegant way of doing things, but it solved my issue for the moment.

Hope this helps, good luck!
