We've done some pretty extensive CSS customisation of the HTML templates, but we've always copied and pasted the code from Studio in to a code editor and then copied/pasted back when we were ready. A bit tedious but at least that gave us some syntax highlighting and auto completion. The language used in the email templates is Apache's Velocity engine and you can do some basic if/else queries on some elements of the user profile data, which can be useful. What I'd really love to see is the ability query the API in the email templates rather than just a limited definite subset of available variables. ... View more

Thanks for the suggestion @ClaudiusH, but I don't to have to run the query for a particular users subscriptions. I'm actually trying to retrieve a list of subscribers to a particular thread... so much like you are doing for the board subscribers, but at a level down. Do you know if such a call is possible? ...

Hi Varun, I'm working on this for Sophie and that thread basically says that the functionality doesn't exist or doesn't work... there's no solutions in it. Having looked at the API docs again it seems though the following call should work: http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc/threads/id/45/subscriptions/global/type/email But when I run that on our community I get the response: <response status="success"> <subscription type="subscription" null="true"/> </response> ... indicating that there are no subscriptions but I've subscribed to that thread myself. According to the documentation here: https://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/Developer-Documentation/bd-p/dev-doc-portal?section=commv1&leaf-id=Discussion.subscriptions#Discussion.subscriptions.global.type.subscription_type ... that call should return a list of userid's and email addresses. Any ideas? ... View more

Thanks @VikasB but I think that's just for use with standard front end tags, not the Moderator custom tags... as in these ones: https://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/Custom-tags/Using-the-Community-API-with-Custom-Tags/ta-p/39908 ... View more
