Products.PloneboardNotify 0.5.0

General settings

When configured, general setting are applied to all forums inside every message board (this is also applied to forums outside any message board, a configuration you can manually obtain from Ploneboard).

Follow a list of available options

Send to all?

If you check this, a mail will be sent to every user of the site.

Recipients

A list of recipients. Recipients can be site members, groups (so an e-mail will be sent to users inside those groups) or e-mail address.

For every entry in this list, you can add a |bcc suffix to send messages using BCC to one or more user/group/address.

Local configuration for forums

From the form above you can quick access any other forum inside the site, from the “Local configuration for forums” section.

From there you can apply the same configurations above to a single forum.

The general rule is: “General settings” are applied to any forum, excluded forums where you add a local configuration.
