Re: Email Notifications from Calendar

Hello Tom,

I finally was able to make Appointment Subject configurable, and now it
uses Users's locale to format date :)) (NOTE user language and country need
to be set correctly)
It took quite a long time :(

Here is the quote from the guide:

If you would like to change the standard email layout or add for example
some footer in every email you have to change the email templates.

To do that:


   - Stop the Red5/OpenMeetings service
   - Goto:
   $RED5_HOME/webapps/openmeetings/WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/openmeetings/service/mail/template/
   - Change HTML file(s) according to your needs, BUT do not remove
   elements with wicket:id attributes! You can hide those elements by adding
   wicket:visible="false" attribute
   - Starting OM 3.1.4 you can change Appointment reminder subject by
   modifying "subject" fragment in file
   $RED5_HOME/webapps/openmeetings/WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/openmeetings/service/mail/template/subject/AbstractSubjectEmailTemplate.html
   as described in previous bullet.
   - Start the Red5/OpenMeetings service
