Purpose: This template controls the display of the "Email a Friend" feature on product listings. When initiated, a form prompts the store visitor to enter their name, their email and their friends name/email with a comment about the product they are viewing. Once submitted the software sends an email to their friend recommending the product to them.

Notes: The feature can be enabled/disabled in the Shift4Shop Online Store Manager's Settings ->General ->Store Settings. The layout of the sent email can be changed from Settings ->Design ->Emails.

Note: It is important to preserve the commented tags to ensure the software performs correctly.

For example:
