Customizing Email Templates

Caribou interacts with your users and administrators via email frequently. Every email sent by Caribou, from user registration emails to subscription welcome emails to subscription receipts, can be edited in Administration > Email Templates.

When editing an email template, you will see a list of Available Variables below the current email template. These variables are replaced with data when they are sent. For example, [[FIRSTNAME]] will be replaced with “Paul” when sending to a registered user with the name Paul Smith. The [[SIGNATURE]] tag is an editable email template itself. Tags can be used in both the Subject and Body fields.

If you want to edit the name and email address of the sender of these emails, edit the adminemailname and adminemail settings in Administration > Settings.
