Things are going smoothly and members are now receiving their email digest.
Its been a great success and I thank you for that.

The only thing that I wanted to ask is, if there was a way to make it much easier to read when on mobile phones.
As it appears difficult to read if opening on mobile and was wondering if there was something I can do on my end?

Or if there was an update in the near future to solve this?

As always, thanks a million.
Hi Ulysses,

May I know what you mean by 'difficult to read'? Is it the alignment on the top? Or too much words under each post?

It’s just not mobile friendly. Attached an image on initial post as an example.

Maybe slightly bigger to read without having to zoom in?

Hey Ulysses,

The font size of digest's content, or any other styling for that matter can be customized in the following email template files.

Thanks for that Raymond..

Any ideas on the best way to test and view the mobile email?

Hey Ulysses,

Currently the only way to test is by sending out the real email. You can generate one for yourself and send it out, but to send it out again, you have to change its status back to pending from the database.

What do you mean by sending out exactly?
Is there a place in the settings where I can automatically send one to myself?
Then also, not sure what you mean by database reset.....

Hey Ulysses,

I meant sending emails to users as usual through the cron. But in this case, you would only want to send a digest email to yourself for testing.

I will explain further, but before that, may I know whether you received email digest from the site before? If yes, can you tell me the email activity ID associated with the email?

If you never received digest emails from the site, on your frontend subscription page, change the interval to Daily.

Not sure, do you mean what I attached?
I am using "Tai" the same super-user you have credentials for; as well.
Just to keep things consistent.

So, I guess for the time being the best thing to do is to set the site-subscription to "daily" or "instant"?

Hey Ulysses,

Setting the subscription to instant will not generate email digests, so set it to daily.

Once you have done that, make sure there are new posts on ED, then perform the steps in the attached screenshot.
