Email Notifications from Calendar
TWIM,
Is the automatically generated Subject: in the notification emails
configurable/accessible to be edited in an .xml or other conf file?
* The current Subject: field produced is very long, and contains
redundant date and time information that is also available in the
body of the email.
* The Subject: leads with a reference to "new Openmeetings
conference": 28 chars--almost half the usual display width in most
email clients. Happy to ride for the brand, but it would be nice if
I could lead with a reference to my Foundation, then /follow/ with
Openmeetings, so that my spam-shy participants don't delete the
notices as they scan their bloated inboxes.
* The dates are also formatted in the european manner, which is
confusing to my insular U.S. users.
Thanks for any light.

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
