Configuring plain text rendering of News records

If you insert News records in your newsletter page, using the “Insert records” content element type, you may configure the plain text rendering of these News rendering. Simply add static template “Direct Mail News Plain Text” in your TS template. Note that order is important: “Direct Mail News Plain Text” should come after or below “Direct Mail Plain Text”. You may then tailor the template to your specific needs.

The “Direct Mail Plain Text” static template is as follows:

  shortcut.0.conf.tt_news =< plugin.tt_news
  shortcut.0.conf.tt_news.code = PLAINTEXT
