Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this post, we discuss on custom mail template with your plugin. Sometimes we need to add a custom mail template for sending mail, we do not need to create our own module for mail template, Shopware has its own default mail template module. So we need to add migration for adding a template and its type with your plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We can achieve custom mail template by using a plugin database migration. In this example first of all will create a template type and its technical name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating a custom mail type<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you want to use your custom mail type not only use an existing mail template type for mail template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s have a look at the code<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this above code, we create the createMailTemplateType method which returns a newly created mail template type ID. Let’s have a look at this method, what we actually do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
