Template Override for Action Replaces Frontend Template

[aljawaid]

The template override in the plugin.php

$this->template->setTemplateOverride('task_comments/show', 'kanboardEmailHistory:task_comments/show');

conflicts with the task page (comments section). Struggling to understand how to code it in such a way that the front end is working as normal and only for the action, we use this new template.

did you get it? I have a screaming headache right now, but I'll take a look when I'm feeling better. I won't leave you hanging.

@creecros I sorted it, thanks. Released the first working version. Seems fine so far, will monitor over a few cronjobs over coming days.

Slowly, I will try to duplicate the Task2PDF style to include the links/attachment list etc to the contents of the email.

awesome, great job! if you get stuck, let me know.

FYI, don't take ques from Task2pdf. That plugin uses dompdf to create pdfs. unrelated to forming emails. Swiftmailer is included in the libraries for kanboard, so you'd want to study that. I don't actually know how to do this, never thought about it, nor have I ever looked at swiftmailer. easiest solution would be to include links, but if you want raw attachments, im sure it can be done.
