Is there a way to change the Orange background color in the admin HTML e-mail message?

The question is, how did the orange background color get in there in the first place? By default this is the std HTML code for the admin email:

<p style="background:#fafafa; text-align:center; font:10px arial">
a form has been submitted on {Date}, via: {Page} [IP {IP}]
</p>

No orange color here.

I had not placed styling..I tried with your example, which is also listed in the Help section. It still produced the Orange in the data table area.

In troubleshooting, it appears it is only when "Include pre formatted form data table" in HTML part is checked for the Form Admin / Email Options.

Can you forward a sample email (with the orange color) to me? Just reply to the email I sent you.

Yes it's a know issue with 5.0. The way Outlook renders HTML is a funny one, but the current version (v5.2) and soon 5.3 will take care of it. Simply update.

I just need to write one last thing… There's many WP plugins out there. Some are good, some are bad. Yours are definitely in the catagori – very good. Smile

 

Again thax for sharing your talent with the rest of ous.

Thanx for the great effort you're giving.

Cheers, Nicolai
