# Mail, SEO and the sitemap ## Mail [`app\components\Mailer`](../../components/Mailer.php) extends `yii\swiftmailer\Mailer` with one method: ```php $mailer->autoConfigure( $subject, $toName, $toEmail, $view, $params ) ``` It composes the view, sets the subject, sets the recipient, and sets the sender to `p( 'email' )` (the `Settings` record's e-mail) named `t( 'metaSiteName' )`. It also pushes `toName` into `$this->view->params` so the layout can greet by name. It returns the message — **the caller still has to call `->send()`**. Only `mailer` exists. A `bulkMailer` was advertised in both `Application` subclasses' `@property` lists without ever being configured; the annotations were removed on 2026-08-08. ### Mail views [`mail/`](../../mail): `activate.php`, `callback-request.php`, `contact.php`, `email-change.php`, `offer.php`, `password-reminder.php`, with a single layout at `mail/layouts/html.php`. Mail views run through `app\components\View` with `$mail = true`, which: - skips the whole `head()` machinery (no meta tags, no Encore assets); - still runs `applyReplaces()`, so `{email}`, `{phone}`, `{address}` and the `Settings` placeholders work in e-mail copy; - skips the JSON-LD injection. Locally every message is caught by MailHog on `raktar24.dev.hu:33001`. ### Error mail Configured through `LOG_EMAIL_ENABLED`, `LOG_EMAIL_SENDER`, `LOG_EMAIL_SUBJECT`, `LOG_EMAIL_RECIPIENTS`. `LOG_EXCEPT` suppresses `yii\web\HttpException:404` and `:400` — **404s never reach the log or the error mail.** The only way to find broken links is to crawl. ## Meta tags Emitted by [`View::head()`](../../components/View.php). See [REQUEST-LIFECYCLE.md](REQUEST-LIFECYCLE.md#5-view-and-head) for the ordering and the `getMeta()` fallback chain. Worth restating: - **`robots`** — `noindex` when inside the admin or `$controller->noindex`; `nofollow` from `$controller->nofollow`. The tag is omitted entirely when neither applies. - **`canonical`** — only emitted when `$controller->canonical` is set **and** differs from the current URL. - **hreflang** — one `alternate` per language plus `x-default` → the Hungarian URL, and only when the controller has `getAlternateUrls()`. - **OpenGraph and Twitter cards** — frontend only, never in the admin. - The default OG image is `/images/og.png` (`View::getImage()`). - **`description` is read off the displayed model.** `getMeta( 'description' )` prefers `$controller->model->description` over the `meta*` message key, so giving a model a `description` attribute silently changes the meta description of its page — that is how `Location.description` became one. - **HTML is stripped with a space in front of every tag**, so `…3.

A telephelyen…` does not become `3.A telephelyen`. Nothing truncates: a long editorial description produces a long meta description. ## JSON-LD [`JsonLdHelper`](../../helpers/JsonLdHelper.php), a singleton. `View::head()` echoes the literal marker `{__JSON_LD_PLACEHOLDER__}`, and `View::endPage()` replaces it with the generated `
