Question Aurelia - E-mail Template - Forum Logo in Kunena e-mail appears stretched/big

Hello Kunena Community!

We have found another little improvement regarding the Forum Logo and we would like to share here what we have changed because maybe you can integrate this change in the next release.

The issue was that the logo appeared stretched on some e-mail clients (f.e. Thunderbird and iOS Mail).

/components/com_kunena/template/aurelia/layouts/email *

The images referenced in the emails cannot have width: 100% and max-width: (as per backoffice configuration), because in some email clients (such as Thunderbird) the width overrides the max-width, causing the images to appear very big. We would set only the width (as per backoffice configuration).

On our Forum we have tried an override of the files above and it works.

If you notice, also the e-mail from Kunena Forum have the logo stretched.

I hope this post will be useful to improve the product.

First of all this is not Aurelia, but Kunena core configuration. The stretching occurs because of the wrong default values. Default Kunena hero-wide is 1120 x 630px. So if forced to Header Height 560 and Header Width 560 by configuration settings, it will be stretched. If set to width="560" height="315" it is ok.
I don't have thunderbird and can only test in gmail and outlook. So maybe you can test with Thunderbird before eventually creating feature request?
See attached photoshopped version of hero-wide with wrong dimensions.

Sure! I can test it on Thunderbird and Mail (iOS). I have the issue on both clients. Thanks!

I tested it:
With the exact dimensions 560 x 315,
with an empty field for the height,
and with “auto” for the height.
The email template was displayed correctly with all three options.
