Hi,

I'd like to be able to change the confirmation message that the users see after they subscribed and clicked the Confirmation link in their email message.  The reason I want to do this is because I work in a different language than English.  Thanks!!!

Hello.

That is available from the administrator, in NS Pro's Preferences.

It also has some dynamic text in it:

Write {conf_host} to produce the address of your site.

To include the confirmation link, write

{conf_link}Click to complete your Subscription or any text you like{/conf_link}

And finally, if you write {conf_url} it will produce the url of the confirmation (without a link).

You can include HTML.

Thank you

Could you please give some more steps?  I have NS Pro.  Do I go to the folders or Joomla Admin.  Thanks!

Well, you need to go to the joomla administrator, and from menu Components, go to NS Pro.

Up on the right, in NS Pro, there is a button called preferences.

When you click that, a 'dialog' opens up in the middle of your browser.

The message you need, is the parameter named "Confirm Subscription Mail Message".

Copy that to any text editor (notepad for example) and edit it there for easier use.

Thank you again

Chris:  I've put good HTML into it and it still shows up text.  Please advise?  Howard

Joomla 1.6+ will not allow HTML in parameters.

You can write CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE in it, and then go to the

language ini files and write all the HTML you want as in

CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE="Good<br/>Old<br/>HTML<br/>in<br/>HERE!"

CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE in curly brackets {}

and which language.ini for english '

ian

No curly brackets! That will make it not work.

Exactly like this:

CONFIRM_MESSAGE

in the component parameters

and

CONFIRM_MESSAGE="HTML here"

in files en-GB.com_nspro.ini
en-GB.mod_newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini
en-GB.newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini

Thank you again.

Hi Christopher

In which folder would these language files be - in a 1.7 installation

(I have experimented with all the ones I have been able to find, with no success, so wondering if this is a procedure that you have tested)

Ian

In the installation there are two en-GB.com_nspro.ini

ie
administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_nspro.ini
language/en-GB/en-GB.com_nspro.ini

there is one en-GB.mod_newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini
ie language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini

and there is no
en-GB.newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini

It's OK - found it by process of elimination:
language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_newsletter_subscriiber_pro.ini

Good. The last one is en-GB.plg_content_newsletter_subscriber_pro.ini

That's why you couldn't find it.

Thank you again.
