--- Comment #6 from Ray Delahunty <r.delahunty at arts.ac.uk> ---
We are using the Koha patron emailer (introduced in 19.05) rather than the
Bywater plugin for our leavers (chasing them before they leave for items on
loan to be returned) and have been trying to use template toolkit inside the
notice so it can send different wordings to different patron groups (like we
have it doing for MEMBERSHIP_EXPIRY, for example), but the testing has failed.
Had it worked, our plan was to try the [% FOREACH checkout IN checkouts %] loop
from the AUTO_RENEWAL_DGST to improve the horrid word-wrapped list of items on
loan, pulled from the report. Our support company said: "the patron emailer
doesn't yet support HTML, and I highly doubt that it would support template
toolkit either". Might the answer be to improve the patron emailer so it
accepts TT (and also html)?
