<p>Synapse uses parametrised templates to generate the content of emails it sends and
webpages it shows to users.</p>
<p>By default, Synapse will use the templates listed <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/synapse/res/templates">here</a>.
Server admins can configure an additional directory for Synapse to look for templates
in, allowing them to specify custom templates:</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml">templates:
custom_templates_directory: /path/to/custom/templates/
</code></pre>
<p>If this setting is not set, or the files named below are not found within the directory,
default templates from within the Synapse package will be used.</p>
<p>Templates that are given variables when being rendered are rendered using <a href="https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/2.11.x/">Jinja 2</a>.
Templates rendered by Jinja 2 can also access two functions on top of the functions
already available as part of Jinja 2:</p>
<pre><code class="language-python">format_ts(value: int, format: str) -> str
</code></pre>
<p>Formats a timestamp in milliseconds.</p>
<p>Example: <code>reason.last_sent_ts|format_ts("%c")</code></p>
<pre><code class="language-python">mxc_to_http(value: str, width: int, height: int, resize_method: str = "crop") -> str
</code></pre>
<p>Turns a <code>mxc://</code> URL for media content into an HTTP(S) one using the homeserver's
<code>public_baseurl</code> configuration setting as the URL's base.</p>
<p>Example: <code>message.sender_avatar_url|mxc_to_http(32,32)</code></p>
