Email Notification was created by drdehart
Is there a way to include a link to the actual message in the notification email instead of just the static link?

So we changed the notification message from uddeim to include a link to the message in the body of the email notification. We put: %msglink% into the mailer code ('_UDDEIM_EMN_BODY_NOMESSAGE').

It works fine when we send messages directly through uddeim, but when a user gets a uddeim message that is originating from GroupJive, the message link is missing the domain name. In other words, when sent directly we see this in the email notification:

www.domain.com/
index.php?option=com_uddeim&task=show&Itemid=100050&messageid=39575

But when GJ sends a message, we see only
index.php?option=com_uddeim&task=show&Itemid=100050&messageid=39575

Here is the entire line of code in the english.php file for uddeim:

"Hi %you%,\n\n%user% has sent you a private message. Here is a link to the message: \n\n %msglink%. \n\n For privacy purposes, you will need to be logged in to read it! \n\n %livesite%");

I reported this on the GJ forum here: www.joomlapolis.com/forum/153-professional-member-support/177135-im-notification-from-groupjive-join-requests#177152

And Kyle's reply was this:

UddeIM is editing the messages on the fly and altering the body to append your message. This apparently doesn't work right for messages sent through their API. Please contact UddeIM regarding your issue ....


Can you help?

Can we pick up this conversation. The suggested resolution (using the CB PM plugin instead of the uddeim plugin) has revealed another bug, this one in the CB PM plug-in. This bug causes the time-stamp to appear 16-hrs earlier than the actual message: www.joomlapolis.com/forum/153-professional-member-support/177135-2907-im-notification-from-groupjive-join-requests

So we're back to investigating if we can get the uddeim plugin to work with GJ messages, specifically the %msglink% parameter.

As I said, we are using V2.3 and cannot upgrade the live site for another couple of months.

Couldn't you use

yourdomain.com/%msglink%

instead?
