October 3.6 - InvalidArgumentException: View [lang.strings.mail_form_submit] not found. about october HOT 3 CLOSED

@daftspunk You were right, I was using the format below. I will follow the documentation to revision my function. Thanks!

public function registerMailTemplates()
    {
        return [
            'templates' => [
                'vendor.plugin::mail.form_submit'   => 'vendor.plugin::lang.strings.mail_form_submit',
            ],
            'layouts' => [
                'custom' => 'vendor.plugin::layouts.artisan'
            ],
            'partials' => [
                'custom_header'  => 'vendor.plugin::partials.header',
                'custom_footer'  => 'vendor.plugin::partials.footer',
            ]
        ];
    }

Hey @Dahfrenk

Check the registerMailTemplates method. Some older plugins were using this format:

// Invalid syntax from v3.6
[
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.1' => 'vendor.plugin::lang.string.1',
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.2' => 'vendor.plugin::lang.string.2',
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.3' => 'vendor.plugin::lang.string.3',
]

The language string part was never used for anything, or documented anywhere, but some plugins were using this syntax (including official ones) and it likely replicated from there.

Change it to either:

// Valid syntax (backward compatible)
[
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.1',
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.2',
    'vendor.plugin::view.hint.3',
]

Or, if you want to use the 3.6 syntax:

// Newer syntax
[
    'shorter:mail.code.1' => 'vendor.plugin::view.hint.1',
    'shorter:mail.code.2' => 'vendor.plugin::view.hint.2',
    'shorter:mail.code.3' => 'vendor.plugin::view.hint.3',
]

Hopefully it helps.
