If your plugin doesn’t work with Gmail that’s kind of a big issue.
We haven’t heard any complaint about this before. Get in touch with us over here so that we can have a better look at this: https://support.mailpoet.com/wordpress-forums/
Instead of giving admin access how about you give me a gmail address and I send you a preview email? I’m sure you just want to help but I’d rather not give admin access if I can avoid it.
Here is a screen shot from the editor
Here’s how it looks in the browser
And here’s how it looks in Gmail
As you can see Gmail adds the class .hx with a color of #222
What file in mailpoet formats the email?
Hi,
Sorry for the confusion. Unfortunately Gmail overrides CSS and there often is not much you can do about it. Can you try adding !important to all the CSS in your theme code?
Adding !important to style.css in the theme does nothing.
As I mentioned before my posts contain html and if I add style information inline such as <div style=”color:#ffffff !important”> to the posts and edit wysija-newsletters/helpers/articles.php line #94 to include ‘<div>’ in the array $tags_not_being_stripped then it will work in gmail but I don’t know if excluding ‘<div>’ from being stripped will cause other issues and I would also need to update all of my posts to include inline styles instead of using the MailPoet theme.
