E-mail templates define the content and layout of
automatic e-mail messages sent by the system. A newly registered user
automatically receives his/her password via e-mail, for instance. The
p-admin can personalize the text of the e-mail templates.
First, the general procedure will be explained. Examples for adjustments in the main input field ("Body") are given afterwards.
In order to create an e-mail template, proceed as follows:
|1| Choose "Messages" from the main menu by clicking on it.
|2| Click on the modify-button next to Email templates.
|3| If your platform
has just been created, you will see a list of standardized e-mail
templates. In order to change one of the templates, click on the
"modify"-button in the respective row. If one of the templates is still
missing, click on the respective link on the left side.
|4| In order to create a new e-mail template, fill out the following input fields:

Fill in the sender's email address.
|
Sender names: |

|
Subject: |
Fill in the subject of the e-mail (e.g. "Your registration").
|

|

you can keep to the default. |
