A configurable Plone product for sending e-mails when new messages are added to Ploneboard forums
Project description
Introduction
Add some configuration to your Plone site for sending e-mail notifications when new discussions or replies are added to Ploneboard forums.
This product can be useful in a Plone site where you have a lot of forums or forums are one of the main content.
How to use
After installation, go the “Plone Configuration” panel and access the new “Ploneboard notification system” section.
General settings
When configured, general setting are applied to all forums inside every message board (this is also applied to forums outside any message board, a configuration you can manually obtain from Ploneboard).
Follow a list of available options
- Send to all?
If you check this, a mail will be sent to every user of the site.
- Recipients
A list of recipients. Recipients can be site members, groups (so an e-mail will be sent to users inside those groups) or e-mail address.
For every entry in this list, you can add a |bcc suffix to send messages using BCC to one or more user/group/address.
Local configuration for forums
From the form above you can quick access any other forum inside the site, from the “Local configuration for forums” section.
From there you can apply the same configurations above to a single forum.
The general rule is: “General settings” are applied to any forum, excluded forums where you add a local configuration.
TODO
Provide a way to manipulate the notification message format
No more ZMI needs or |bcc suffix: switch to Plone registry
Make the sender configurable globally, for single forum, etc
Notification messages to local roles (see #1)
Current version support global configuration and forum specific ones; the long-term plan wanna reach also forum area configurations
A complete, clean uninstall procedure that remove all unwanted stuff
Requirements
Plone 4.2 (Ploneboard 3.3)
Plone 4.3 (Ploneboard 3.4)
Other older Plone 4 should works also.
