The Silverdale Ignore Header/Footer in Email module introduces a simple but powerful enhancement to Odoo’s email templating system. This feature allows users to selectively exclude the standard header and footer from email templates, giving more control over formatting and content structure—especially for system-generated or minimal-style emails.
Key Features
- Adds an "Ignore Header/Footer" checkbox on each email template.
- When checked, the default email layout wrapper (which includes logo, header, and footer) will not be included when the email is sent.
- Applies to any email using that template, including automated emails, user-triggered messages, or system workflows.
- Fully integrated with Odoo’s QWeb templating and mail rendering engine.
Benefits
- Perfect for plain-text or system alert emails that should not include branding elements.
- Allows for leaner layouts when integrating with external systems or sending formatted technical data.
- Reduces visual noise in internal operational emails such as system notifications or logs.
Example Use Case
A logistics company uses automated emails to notify system admins of API failures. With the Ignore Header/Footer option enabled, these emails are clean, concise, and free from unnecessary branding—making it easier for recipients to focus on the technical content.
This module is ideal for businesses that require greater formatting flexibility in email communications while maintaining centralized control over templating within Odoo.
