This plugin enables you to insert items (one by one or by a selection on one or several categories) from SobiPro in your Newsletter.
You can also use this plugin to automatically include your newly created (or modified) SobiPro items in an Auto-newsletter or a Newsletter.
You can search in all your SobiPro items and then click on one of the item to include it in your Newsletter.
You can download the SobiPro plugin on our plugin section then install and publish it like a standard Joomla plugin.
You can use this interface to insert any SobiPro item in your Newsletter.
Each item can be selected one by one.
Display:
Title Only: only the title will be inserted
Category View: the element will be inserted using the SobiPro category view
Details View: the element will be inserted using the SobiPro details view
Display pictures: You can decide to display or not this picture in your Newsletter or display a resized size of it.
Clickable Title: make your title clickable (so linked to your online version) or not.
You can select one or several SobiPro categories and AcyMailing will automatically include the SobiPro items belonging to the selected categories.
Maximum Number of Articles: The inserted tag will be replaced by a maximum of X SobiPro items.

Sobi Params
Display articles: This parameter enables you to filter the list of SobiPro items in the tag system
All articles: AcyMailing will display all your SobiPro items
Only published articles: AcyMailing will only display your published SobiPro items
Remove javascript: This option enables you to remove any javascript code included in your SobiPro item as the javascript won't work in most of mail clients.
Max picture height / Max picture width : In case of you selected the resized option, AcyMailing will resize your pictures following the specified max height / width.
You can change the styles used for the title and the content area by editing your AcyMailing template.
Edit the AcyMailing template used for your Newsletter and then set some styles:
Style for the content area will be used to encompass your Sobi item
Style for the content title will be applied to your content title
Style for the read more link will be applied to your read more link (if you have one)
You can also set the style of all your links using the Link a field
Set styles template
You can also modify the way your SobiPro item is displayed by creating your own template which will be used to render the SobiPro item. Please follow those instructions, we don't recommend you to modify the SobiPro plugin directly otherwise your changes will be overwritten when you update AcyMailing.
Create a file in the folder media / com_acymailing / plugins (if the folder does not exists, please create it first). The name of the file should be sobipro.php If this file is available on your server, AcyMailing will use it and won't use the default one.
On this file you can access the element $article (which is the article object loaded from the content table) and the element $tag (which contains the information of the current tag used in your Newsletter).
