I need to change the default hyperlink color of ALL emails sent from within CRM (and other modules).

I don't like the default Odoo green color. I want to use a blue color that most users know as a clickable link color.

I'm using Online 18. Is it possible to do this universally without having to make individual edits to each item I send, eg:
- Custom email
- Email template
- Quotation with a link
- Invoice with a link

I'd ideally like to apply this universally to every customer facing item I could possibly want to send.

Hi,

1.Activate Developer Mode: Go to Settings, scroll down to the bottom, and click "Activate the developer mode" (or "Activate the developer mode (with assets)").
2.Navigate to Email Templates: Go to Settings > Technical > Email > Email Templates.
3.Select Template: Find and open the specific email template you want to modify (e.g., "Sales Order: Send by Email", "Quotation - Send").
4.Edit HTML: In the template editor, look for the "Body" field. You might need to click the </> (Source Code) button in the editor toolbar to view and edit the raw HTML.
5.Find and Replace: Locate the <a> tags and add or modify the style="color: #0000FF;" attribute as shown above.

6.Save: Save the changes to the email template.


Hope it helps

Email templates, at this point, are a bit of a mess. Most of them rely heavily on inline styling (i.e. <a href="..." style="color: #123456" .../>). For where this is the case you can't do much more than editing each template individually and change its style (i.e. by removing the color so it behaves more 'naturally') via Settings -> Technical --> Email -> Email Templates (requires you to enable the Developer mode first: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/18.0/applications/general/developer_mode.html). All in all I would assume you will be facing a hard time when trying to modify everything to look perfect with an Odoo Online plan due to the fact that many mails (or there contents) are also generated dynamically, which would have you edit the source to address those. Also with a custom plan, this is not a trivial task (not too difficult, but certainly a lot of work).
