    I am trying to use this plugin on http://www.mytestsite2.info. When I send a link to a page the email contains the page source code rather than a properly formatted HTML email. Can you help me understand why? I did try a different them but yielded the same results. Below is part of the email received

    I am guessing it is something to do with the shortcode plugin that you are using. It seems it is not being hook on the_content filter and hence that happens.

    Thank you Lester for your reply.Can you explain a bit more what you are thinking? I don’t have a shortcode plugin on this site.

    Hi Lester. I just discovered that the issue was if in the Email Body you included %EMAIL_POST_CONTENT% this is what caused the issue. If I pull that out then I am fine but unfortunately no content is displayed which I would greatly prefer. What would cause that and how can I resolve it?

    That is the email template variable for displaying your content. It will be replaced at the code level with the actual content. See https://github.com/lesterchan/wp-email/blob/master/wp-email.php#L396-L421

    I don’t have a solution for you unfortuntely because my gut feeling is that the plugin you are using for the shortcode hooks on something else that is missing from the plugin. Since I don’t use that plugin myself, I can’t advice you on it. I would recommend you asking that theme/plugin author instead to see what is missing than maybe I can add it in this plugin.

    What plugin for shortcode hooks are you referring to? I do not see such a plugin. I would be glad to pursue that with that author if I can find out which plugin you are referring to.

    [et_pb_section admin_label] is a shortcode used. Perhaps u can check where that is coming from?

    That is actually part of the Divi theme that I am using.

    Maybe the theme has something custom to parsed it at a template level and that something custom is not in this plugin. Since I don’t use that theme, I can’t really help you with it. You might want to contact the theme author to see if they can help or hire a freelance dev to debug the code for you =)
