hl.plone.boardnotifications 0.2

Subject and Signature

If you choose to configure subject and signature, those will be used in all templates. If you want to use subjects and signature on a per template basis, leave these fields blank. You can then add the signature to each template as appropriate. For a per template subject, enter

Subject:your subject here

on the first line of the mail template, followed by a blank line.

Variables

You can use a number of variables to produce meaningful mail texts using standard Python string conversion specifiers with the variable name as mapping key (i.e. %(variable_name)s). The following variables are available in the email templates:

• all member properties as defined in portal_memberdata

• conversation title: use %(threadtitle)s to reference the conversation title in

• conversation URL: use %(threadurl)s to reference the conversation URL

• forum title: use %(boardtitle)s to reference the forum title

• comment URL: use %(commenturl)s to reference the comment url

Personalized Mail Salutations

The salutation field can be used to define gender specific salutations. If you don’t need this feature, just leave it blank. When you save your settings, your empty string will be replaced by ‘:’ - simply ignore this. You can still put a generic salutation in each mail template and use %(fullname)s to address the recipient. If you want personalized salutations, hl.plone.boardnotifications defines a new member property named ‘salutation’. It is your responsibility to fill it per member by e.g. customizing @@personal-settings. Then you have to map the possible contents of the salutation member property to the desired salutation, e.g.:

Mr:Dear Mr. %(fullname)s, Mrs:Dear Mrs. %(fullname)s, :Dear Mrs./Mr. %(fullname)s,
