Description

Relative links in email make no sense in general. Any links within a `FluidEmail` content should be rendered as absolute links per default. Or else there should be any `TypoScript` configuration option (or mailer class property) be introduced.

Current use case: When using `FluidEmail` with any RTE content, `lib.parseFunc_RTE` need to be modified (or copied) and passed to `f:format.html()` like `{myCustomEmailBody -> f:format.html(parseFuncTSPath: 'lib.parseFunc_RTE_EMAIL')}`. This should be simplified and made more developer friendly.

Hey Jan,

do you know the option "config.forceAbsoluteUrls = 1" in TypoScript, which solves exactly your usecase? It also spans not just in RTE fields but in all generated link places.

Hi Benni,

yes, I’ve seen that had been introduced recently :) But that would always set the absolute in general, also for the site itself, not just the emails. Of course you might workaround with any sub typescript templates for the email related pages only, but…

Do relative links in emails make sense at all?

I still believe the origin issue makes sense. But perhaps better add a similar configuration option „ forceAbsoluteUrlsForFluidEmail“ (not typoscript, but TCA or extension configuration or feature toggle), which would also affect „low level“ emails (symfony commands, middlewares etc)…

What do you think?
