Hi

Im creating a newsletter through the newsletter module which contains links to anchor points in the email.

Because SS converts the anchor links into absolute urls (#my-anchor becomes www.mysite.com/#my-anchor) the anchor links no longer work.

I also had to add a <base tag to make images entered through the newsletter module visible in the email preview which may be causing part of the problem.

I've worked out a possible hack of adding an id to the table containing the links to the anchors, which would then make it possible to use simplexml to parse the content and convert the absolute urls back to relative urls. Does anyone have a better idea of how to achieve this result as i don't really want to edit the core newsletter module files.

Thanks
Phil

Any ideas..?

I'm not sure if this will work, but try putting this in your mysite/_config.php file

SSViewer::setOption('rewriteHashlinks', false);

This will stop silverstripe from rewriting ALL hash links in your site.

No... that's not QUITE it. The links now point to

http://www.mysite.com#whatever-the-anchor-was-called

as opposed to

http://www.mysite.com/newsletter/sendNewsletter#whatever-the-anchor-was-called

but it's still not pointing to the newsletter itself.

Thanks a heap for the suggestion though! :)
