In 6.1 you can choose a template (.master) for a newsletter template the same way you can choose a template for a page.

However the theme set to the template is not used and I can't find a way to choose a them. Do we have to create a .master with inline css for newsletter campains?

Newsletter “Like a web page”Sitefinity is giving you the flexibility of designing your newsletter in its Layout Editor like it is a regular webpage. This gives you the power of using already existing widgets and content in the system while Sitefinity is converting all div layouts into tables, so that they can be properly interpreted by the majority of web clients. In previous versions of the product you had to implement all your stylesheets as inline styles which was making this feature hard to use. With Sitefinity 5.1 we have implemented a CSS parser that converts all external CSS files to inline styles, so you can design & edit your newsletter like a web page.

Hi Markus,

I have tested your scenario on my test project and I can't find any problem with the .master templates. Would it be possible to share some screenshots or video demonstrating the problem in order to get a better picture of it?

Hi,

The problem is caused by a bug in Sitefinity. Thank you for reporting it. You could find the bug description in our Feedback portal on the following URL. Markus, your Telerik points have been updated.

There is not workaround at the moment. I hope that the problem will be fixed soon.

Hi,

Please excuse us for the delay of logging this problem. I completely agree with you. My colleague was not able to reproduce it and this is the reason why the forum was not updated. I have marked it as important for client and I hope that it will be fixed soon.
