E-mail settings¶
The tab E-mail Settings, is where we can change the settings for sending emails.
Note
- For the
PRO
version, additional options are available, such as: use of your own SMTP server, from which emails will be sent to customers,
uploading a logo that will appear at the beginning of the email message.
Available options¶
Here is the list of available options with a brief explanation.
- New order notifications¶
Specifies to which email address notifications will be sent about new orders placed on the site. The default is the email address you used to create your Foto.Guru account.
- Enable notifications for new orders¶
Specifies whether new order notifications will be sent.
- Email used for customer notifications¶
Specifies what email address will be available (as a
Response
option), for customers who receive a notification about the status of their order.- Use SMTP configuration¶
Specifies whether to use custom SMTP server settings or use the default mail server.
- Send test email¶
Allows you to verify that the specified SMTP settings are correct. A test email is sent to the email address you used to create your Foto.Guru account.
- Server¶
Specifies the
host
of the SMTP server that will be used to send email.Tip
If you are using Google’s SMTP server, note whether your account has two-factor authentication enabled. If so, we will not be able to send emails from your account.
In this case, it is necessary to create a special password for our application on your Google account. Another alternative, is to use a different email account.
- Port¶
Specifies the
port
of the SMTP server that will be used to send emails.- User¶
Specifies the
username
of the SMTP server that will be used to send emails.- Password¶
Specifies the
user password
of the SMTP server that will be used to send email messages.- Logo¶
Specifies the file that will be shown as a logo in emails directed to customers.
Tip
The ideal dimensions for the logo, are: 80px high (proportional width).
Any other dimensions of the logo will be scaled to this size. It is worth noting the “empty space” that often occurs in the logo graphics (usually at the top and bottom). If we eliminate them, the logo will be larger and thus more distinct.
