Message Template Programmatic Access

Hello,
Is it possible to access email message template content programmatically? We didn't see a specific Fluent facade for that.

As an alternative, is there a way to tell the rad editor (HtmlField) to not change the HTML we enter? We currently have a custom form for the admin to edit a simple email template, but the HtmlField seems to alter the HTML that is entered when switching between Design and HTML modes.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello,
Thank you for using our services. By default the ContentEditor will strip form and script tags when pasting HTML inside. One option would be to map an external template for the HtmlField template used in the ContentBlock widget designer, and in the custom template specify this.editControl.ContentFilters = Telerik.Web.UI.EditorFilters.None; For your convenience I'm attaching a sample modified template. For more information on mapping external templates to Sitefinity 4.x widgets, please check these resources:
Customizing Sitefinity 4 Controls with the ViewMap

If any issues persist, can you please let us know of the exact use case scenario that you need to implement, so maybe we could provide you with a possible workaround or give you a more specific advice.

Boyan,

Thank you for this information.

Bump.

Anyone know if it's possible to programmatically access an email template added in the Email Campaign | Message Templates section? How would we access these?

Thanks for any help!

Hello,

An email campaign template is actually just a MessageBody with Istemplate property set to true. So you can just say

var myMessageTemlpate = NewslettersManager.GetManager().GetMessageBodies().Where(mB => mB.IsTemplate == true && mB.Name == "MyTemplateName").FirstOrDefault();
