Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)

Button Color Application

Currently ready but needs template update:

$primary_color = $email_settings['primary_color'] ?? '#7f54b3';
$button_text_color = $email_settings['button_text_color'] ?? '#ffffff';

// Apply to .button class in template

Social Icon Assets

Need to create/host social icon images:

• facebook.png
• twitter.png
• instagram.png
• linkedin.png
• youtube.png
• website.png

Or use Font Awesome / inline SVG.

Preview Integration

Update EditTemplate preview to fetch and apply email settings:

const { data: emailSettings } = useQuery({
  queryKey: ['email-settings'],
  queryFn: () => api.get('/notifications/email-settings'),
});

// Apply to preview styles
