I want to add my custom link in contact email link. For that, I have created a new email template for the contact email but this is in plain text. enter image description here

So how can I add a link to contact email template OR how can I overwrite the contact email template in my custom module/theme?

As per @VivekKumar answer, please check the below image.

As per @Akhilesh answer, I have overwrite the email_template.xml file in my theme as below. Clear the cache - run content deploy but it loads the template in the plain text.

  • I have used the same code and it works fine for me, try flushing browser and magento cache to see if it fixes the problem

You will need to change the template type to html from text in file 

vendor/magento/module-contact/etc/email_templates.xml

Take this file in your theme folder and change from text to html

<template id="contact_email_email_template" label="Contact Form" file="submitted_form.html" type="html" module="Magento_Contact" area="frontend"/>

  • Changing type of entire email templates to html just to make a link work doesnt seem fine to me.

  • @VivekKumar vendor/magento/framework/Mail/Template/TransportBuilder.php check prepareMessage function. It is checking that template file is plain text or html. getTemplate() function will set the all template variables which we declare in email_templates.xml file.

Place your link's html inside {{trans '<your html>' |raw}} enclosure to ask it to be rendered as html and not as text. So, it should look as follows :

{{trans '<a href="www.example.com">example</a>'|raw}}
