Email Notifications for FullBlogPlugin

Notice: This plugin is unmaintained and available for adoption.

This plugin is no longer being maintained, however patches will be accepted. It is suggested that you use the AnnouncerPlugin, which provides optional support for the FullBlogPlugin.

Description

This plugin uses the blog change interface in FullBlogPlugin to send out email notifications for:

  • new posts
  • updated posts
  • comment added
  • deleted posts

Email notifications are sent to the user who made the change. Notifications can also be sent to other users or a distribution list by specifying the smtp_always_cc option.

The emails are sent in plain text using a template that was modeled after Trac's ticket_notify_email template.

If you are using the AnnouncerPlugin, you should use its FullBlogPlugin rather than the FullBlogNotificationPlugin.
