Enable newlines in offline booking email message

[Pixelatic]

I’m implementing offline booking emails as outlined here http://wp-event-organiser.com/blog/tutorial/sending-an-email-after-an-offline-booking/ (thanks for the tutorial Stephen) and struggling to get $message to include newlines.

My code for $message is

 /* Set message */
 $message = "Dear %display_name%" . "\r\n";
 $message .= "Thank you for your booking" . "\r\n";
 $message .= "You will receive a confirmation email once we have received and processed your payment."; 
 $message = eventorganiser_email_template_tags( $message , $booking_id, $template );//Parses the email tags

At the moment $message is outputting on a single line in the resulting email, which doesn’t look great.

Is eventorganiser_email_template_tags() stripping newlines – in which case, can I override this – or am I missing something else obvious here?

Thanks, David

Hi David,

E-mails are sent as HTML, so try replacing the newlines with <br/> tags.

Ah, that explains it – now sorted by using <br/> thanks – David.
