# Go to Configuration > Technical > Emails > Templates # Open the desired ``email.template`` record. # In Advanced Parameters tab, find the Force Layout field. You can leave it empty to use the default email layout (chosen by Odoo). You can force a custom email layout of your own. You can use the *Mail: No-Layout notification template* to prevent Odoo from adding a layout. To configure a custom layout of your own, some technical knowledge is needed. You can see how the existing layouts are defined for details or inspiration: * ``mail.mail_notification_light`` * ``mail.mail_notification_paynow`` * ``mail.mail_notification_borders``
