Configurating JOOMLA's e-mail notification for new account

Question

Dear all...

I'm using Joomla 1.5 to create a local site for my office. The site will be accessed locally via intranet, and my PC will be the localhost for the site.

I'm using a Login pluggin, so that anyone who wanted to enter the site should create an account. In JOOMLA, all user who created their account for the first time will receive a notification e-mail like :

"Hello pras,

You have been added as a User to Information Center by an Administrator.

This e-mail contains your username and password to log in to http://localhost/yaddayadda/

Username: hadisuryo.prasetio Password: xxxx

Please do not respond to this message as it is automatically generated and is for information purposes only."

but if the user click the URL in the mail, which is, "localhost/yaddayadda/" they will not be directed to my site, but to their own PC's localhost....

My question is : How can I Modified the e-mail or the site configuration so that the URL will not be "localhost/yaddayadda/" anymore, but will be "(My-IP adress)/yaddayadda"

I'm not going to host my site to a web hosting service, just using my PC as a host.

I've been trying to trace on each config and .ini files...it seems that i have to do something with the "JURI" function or the "$mosConfig_live_site" on the backlink.php file

$mosConfig_absolute_path = JPATH_SITE; $mosConfig_live_site = JURI :: base(); $url_array = explode('/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);

Can anyone give me assistance ? Thank You

Answer 1

actually what the joomla does it takes the value as $_SERVER for the host so what you have to do u just append "/yaddayadda" at the email template of the joomla

Answer 2

Where is email template of the joomla stored? How can I find it?

Answer 3

Hello,

You could edit:

%SITE_ROOT%/administrator/language/en-GB.com_users.ini at around LINE 28, which reads

*NEW_USER_MESSAGE=Hello %s,\n\n\nYou have been added as a User to %s by an Administrator.\n\nThis e-mail contains your username and password to log in to %s\n\nUsername: %s\nPassword: %s\n\n\nPlease do not respond to this message as it is automatically generated and is for information purposes only.*

Be careful with the '%s' variable as it appears to insert different values in each instance. First instance renders their NAME, second SITE NAME, third one is the USER NAME, etc, etc.
