# HTML Email Templates

 * Greetings.
 * Just got this plugin and I’m really liking it. I’m very close to purchasing the
   full bundle for the full featured invoicing in WordPress. The only thing I’d 
   say is that while invoices can be displayed in templates and adjusted to fit 
   themes, I’m finding the nofitication emails lacking in professionalism.
 * Loosely following [this thread](https://usabilitydynamics.com/products/wp-invoice/forum/topic/html-e-mail-for-invoice-templates),
   I attempted to edit the plugin files(which I’d rather not do) to enable html 
   content type so I could use html to change the layout using table and also to
   display images, however I was not able to get it working.
 * Also having links contained in `<a href=""></a>` instead of the entire string
   being displayed would also make it a little more professional.
 * Is this a feature being developed in the near future?
 * Thanks.

 * Hello,
 * currently wp-invoice email templates are really simple and allows to use text
   email only. If you need to use a bit advanced email templates then you can connect
   WP-CRM plugin which allows to customize emails with html.

 * Hey, thanks for your reply.
 * I have got WP-CRM connected as well. I can’t see any option to integrate the 
   WP-Invoice email settings in with WP-CRM.
 * If I understand I need to add New Invoice as a Trigger Action, however I’m not
   sure how to achieve this. Do I need to add the ‘new invoice’ trigger action to
   my functions.php somehow?
 * Thanks.
 * Have you got any video tutorials?

 * Yes I found those, however there is no Trigger Action for sending a created invoice
   notification, hence why I thought I needed to add them in.
 * After connecting the plugins I still only see:
 * User Registration
    WPI: Invoice Paid (Client Receipt) WPI: Invoice Paid (Notify
   Administrator) WPI: Invoice Paid (Notify Creator) Example Shortcode Form
 * Thanks

 * Ah, you need trigger for invoice creation?
    I need to check the ability to add
   custom. I’ll let you know.
 * Thanks.

 * Sorry, but currently there is no any hook you can use to trigger invoice creation
   notification. We probably will add it in future.
 * Now the only option is to use built-in notification UI manually [http://screencast.com/t/NKadZJX8xH](http://screencast.com/t/NKadZJX8xH)

 * Howdy,
 * Thanks for all your help.
 * I have added html to the content type of the headers in the plugin files and 
   added my html layout into the boxes for sending notifications. It’s not ideal
   but it’s working and allows me to continue using your plugin and purchase the
   addons.
 * Thanks again.
