Hello, so I have configured my instance with my SMTP provider but I am overall confused on where and how to edit my templates. Shouldn't that be something resolved in the AppWrite console? Thank you.

Right now this is not available through the Appwrite console, but you could replace the templates files located at: https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/tree/master/app/config/locale/templates
We do plan to add this as a console feature in the future.

Any information you can pass on regarding where the templates values are coming from? I want to change the Account's create email response text.


Yup, thank you.

Hey there, I would like to make a suggestion regarding the template:
currently the action link inside the mails (e.g. account verification) is a clear link (<a href="{{redirect}}" target="_blank">{{redirect}}</a>
).
But I think it makes more sense to add a property action
to the emails e.g.:
{
...
"emails.verification.subject": "Account Verification",
"emails.verification.hello": "Hey {{name}}",
"emails.verification.body": "Follow this link to verify your email address.",
"emails.verification.footer": "If you didn’t ask to verify this address, you can ignore this message.",
"emails.verification.thanks": "Thanks",
"emails.verification.signature": "{{project}} team",
"emails.verification.action": "Verify Account",
...
}
And modify the template to:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
.button {
border: none;
color: white;
padding: 15px 32px;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
margin: 4px 2px;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: #4CAF50;/* e.g. Green */
}
</style>
</head>
<body style="direction: {{direction}}">
...
<a href="{{redirect}}" target="_blank"><button class="button">{{action}}</button></a>
</body>
</html>
What do you think?

it would be best to create a github issue with your suggestion
