Border_Style_Postprocessor{}WC 1.0└─ Postprocessor

Postprocessor that handles border-style declarations to ensure consistent rendering across email clients.

This postprocessor addresses two main issues:

  1. Normalize border-style declarations:

    When using a uniform border-style declaration with non-uniform border-widths,
    some email clients (like Outlook) will incorrectly display borders on all sides
    even when the width is 0. For example:
    `border-color: #000000; border-style: solid; border-width: 0 1px 0 0;`
    would render borders on all sides in Outlook. This postprocessor normalizes
    the border-style declarations to only set styles for sides where border-width > 0:
    `border-color: currentColor; border-width: 0 1px 0 0; border-right-style: solid;`
  2. Add fallback border styles:
    The block editor provides a default solid style for borders that have a width
    but no style specified. This postprocessor adds the same `border-style: solid`
    fallback to ensure the email rendering matches what users see in the editor.

The postprocessor handles all border cases including:

  • Shorthand border declarations (border: 1px solid black)
  • Individual side declarations (border-top, border-right, etc.)
  • Individual property declarations (border-width, border-style, etc.)
  • Mixed combinations of the above

No Hooks.
