Email Notification Templates

Our extension encourages the sending of email notifications on each key action that an affiliate can perform. You can see their list on Email Notification Settings subsection at Marketing -> Affiliates -> Settings.

Each notification can be sent using its template. It is a standard Magento Transactional Email that can be customized using the default Magento means.

Our extension also adds a set of special variables to the templates that turn emails into flexible notifications.

How to customize Email Notification

If you wish to customize one of the Affiliate Email Notification, please do the following:

• Go to Marketing -> Email Templates and press the Add New Template button. You will be brought to the Template creation page.
• Use the Template drop-down field to select one of the default Affiliate templates as a base - they are located under the Mirasvit_Affiliate section.

  Note

  If you wish to customize the notification for a new account creation - you will realize that our extension provides two different templates with the same name - New Account. The first one is the email notification for admin staff and the second is for the affiliate.
• Press the Load Template button to automatically fill in the Template Subject and the Template Content fields with default content. Modify them to fit your needs.
• Give the template a new Template Name and save the template. From this moment on, it becomes selectable in the configuration section.
• Go to Marketing -> Affiliates -> Settings -> Email Notification Settings, pick up the proper event, assign it to your newlycreated template, and save the configuration.
