* Clean notifications just changes the links so you see links like [Spam](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-html-emails-question-regarding-functionality/?output_format=md#)
instead of long stringy URLs like [http://example.ca/wp-admin/comment.php?action=spam&c=10055](http://example.ca/wp-admin/comment.php?action=spam&c=10055).

* WIth HTML Emails you get fully designed emails that look far far better than
the stock WordPress emails. [Screenshot](http://s.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/html-emails/screenshot-1.png?r=310345)

* ok so that means I am switching 🙂
I was just concerned of losing any functionality
but it seems you offer way more than the other plugin….

* Glad to hear you’re switching! 🙂
* Check out the [Plugin Page](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/html-emails/other_notes/)
for info on how to customize the templates.
* If you need more info / help, just let me know.

* Ah, I never made it that far. read the description, then installing where I was
told: install, activate, ready and was wondering where to customize it 🙂

* sorry to bump this, I am finally getting to think about customizing the templates
but I wanted to ask if you could provide a sample? Kinda of a default one so
I’ve got a starting point?
* oh, and this screenshot you provided above: [http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/images/inline/notification_new.gif](http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/images/inline/notification_new.gif)
is that the default look or is that a customized version/template already?

* You can use the files in the templates folder as a starting point. Just copy
them into your theme or your `/wp-content/` folder and modify as necessary.

* ok, thanks will check those files out but what about my second question:
* > oh, and this screenshot you provided above: [http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/images/inline/notification_new.gif](http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/images/inline/notification_new.gif)
> is that the default look or is that a customized version/template already?
* Just asking because that screen shot looks really sweet already 🙂
ah, just
realized I actually meant this one: [http://s.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/html-emails/screenshot-1.png?r=310345](http://s.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/html-emails/screenshot-1.png?r=310345)

* hm, copied the templates into my theme and the notifications still look the same:
boring as before 🙁
* tried placing the template files in my child theme and in the parent theme, both
didn’t work.
* need to point out though that I am using wp 3.2RC1 for testing.

* sorry to bump, but could anyone confirm if this plugin works with wp 3.2RC1?
and maybe with parent/child themes?
