Change the subject when using django-templated-email

To send email with an HTML tag, I use django-templated-email. How can I change the subject?

send_templated_mail(
    template_name='druduser/views/register_email',
    from_email=settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL,
    recipient_list=[email],
    context={'username': username,},
)

I found the solution:
I have to put {% block subject %} block out of {% block html %} ...

Thanks for your help!

Quote from docs:

For legacy purposes you can specify email subjects in your settings file (but, the preferred method is to use a {% block subject %} in your template)

So, you can specify a custom subject right in your template by defining a subject block: see docs.

If you want to go with TEMPLATED_EMAIL_DJANGO_SUBJECTS setting, template_name should be just a name of the actual template (without extension).

Define TEMPLATED_EMAIL_DJANGO_SUBJECTS dictionary in settings.py, e.g.:

TEMPLATED_EMAIL_DJANGO_SUBJECTS = {
    'welcome':'Welcome to my website',
}

Define where to get templates and a file extension:

TEMPLATED_EMAIL_TEMPLATE_DIR = 'templated_email/' #Use '' for top level template dir
TEMPLATED_EMAIL_FILE_EXTENSION = 'email'

Then just send the mail using welcome as a template_name:

send_templated_mail(
    template_name='welcome',
    from_email=settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL,
    recipient_list=[email],
    context={'username': username,},
    )

In this case your template should be in templated_email/welcome.email.

Hope that helps.
