Thread "Self-Registration Confirmation Email| Is Customisation possible?"

Hello everyone, 

I have a question regarding the customization of the confirmation email that the students receive when they self-register in ILIAS. They have 30 minutes to confirm the registration by clicking on a link, which activates their user account. 

Can the header of the email  (Open Source e-Learning) be customised?

Can the text (body of the email) be customised?

Thank you for your support. 

Kind regards

Angela Banos 

Hi Angela,

To customize the New Account Mail email, please navigate to:

Administration -> User Accounts -> Settings -> New Account Mail

You will be able to customize several of the email fields.  YOu can also use placeholders for everyting but the subject.

Adam

Hi Adam,

Thank you for the quick answer. By "subject" you mean the line that reads "Open Source e-Learning" on the top, right-hand corner of the email body, right?

Have a good start to the week,

Angela

Happy Monday Angela!

Yes, I am pretty sure.  I work more in the CORE and plugin space,  but I have played with the email section too.  Apparently the subject does allow for placeholders as well.  The text that is displayed by default has the placeholder of [Ilias] .. and I am pretty sure that can be edited through the GUI at:

Administration -> General Settings

in either the sub tab of "Header Title" or "Basic Settings" (I have the default settings changed, so that is from memory).

Adam

Hi Angela,

you can change this "Open Source e-Learning" , if you have Serveracces.

You need to go to the folder named : ../Services/Mail/templates/default

there is a .html named: tpl.html_mail_template.html.

There you can change it to what you want.

Unfortunately i am Struggling with a nearby problem. the Logo is never displayed within the e-Mails.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

Best regards,

Sören
