I am still working on the graphics and will be changing with some different color options and for easily editing for the end user. I have removed the Header 3 as I don't need it but i can send the example with it added as well.

It is nothing fancy really just some editing to my liking but will be making a lot more changes soon to make a whole design on it.

343

Pretty cool. Yes, please advise about the header3. I use that to link to my PlexRequest link.

344

You would do the same as for header 1 and header 2 with the config file as well for the Table in the plexemail.py you would just make it the same as the other 2 and your link would work correctly. I have the plex image on cloudinary if you want to use it as well i just did it with a grey background and think i like it more. I have added table background code in there as well so the text background will be the same color and matching.

Pretty cool. I previously made some minor changes of my own but I like the boxing you have and I can add my own logo now. The only thing I can seem to find is the hex value for the color of the different category fonts.

New Movies

New TV Seasons

When you say the hex colors in the config or in the plexemail.py?

An addition that would be great is the notice but for sending out maintenance announcements that does not include any movie content. Simply have the header image and a maintenence message show in the header and what content you add to the Maintenance. I don't know how hard that would be to code in though.

Thanks,

Dereck

Perfect, that was what I was looking for. I was looking in the wrong spot. My stuff was 50 lines earlier than yours but it got me looking in the right place. Thanks.

No problem I am gonna continue adding more stuff to it over next few weeks and will share progress as it comes along.

What email service are you using? I was reading that one of his bug fixes was the SSL not being turned off correctly in the config file. I will see if I can find that. I am using SSL.

352

Can you provide your Email portion of config minus your username and password for security purposes?

I can help you with this if need be. Let me know and if you want to send me the picture or link i can whip up the code for you and show you what I changed to make it work for you.

I have coded it for your Saitoh's if you send me the image you want to use and if you want the backgrounds to be editable or the image to just over lay 2 backgrounds so you can change colors at anytime. Let me know and will work on this some more for you and will share the code with you.

Here is what i have it now. The 3 text area's are configured from Header 1, 2, and 3. The background's are set as transparent instead of a number but the backgrounds can be done by setting a background and using the plex image as a overlay on the background.

Updates to snippet posted about the image. Please see the revisions this will make it where you can include a hex color #000000 or you can just type a color example blue, green, red etc..

If you guys like these please let me know and I am open to suggestions and the owner of plexEmail if you want to implement this into your code and would like some contributions let me know and will help in any way i can.

357

Dude this is awesome! Thanks. 

My feature request would be maybe looking into a easier formatting for creating email templates so people less knowledgeable can make there own customization and your not stuck doing all the heavy lifting :)

Maybe making a separate file that is just for customization that would override the default template. This way your current default stays untouched and if people have problems in the custom file, they can just post it and it would be easier to troubleshoot. It would also make it easier to share templates between users.

358

Saitoh,

That would be my assumption that the developer did not get to far into making the HTML as complicated as I have. The customization is not terribly hard if you HTML and where to edit. I am going to make a template from your's and a template from my original. I can make it where it is pretty simple to customize. As far as using a separate file to pull in I could make this happen pretty sure.

If you want to message me the graphic that you have the raw format if you have it made in photoshop or what not so i can remove letter i can make it more customized how you like. I have updated the code above the Header 3 did not include website link.

I know some html...but mixed in with python makes it hard to figure out. 

I sent you the image link via PM
