"Read more" links in Notification emails are butchered #65

Closed rjcorwin closed 12 years ago

rjcorwin commented 12 years ago

I think the issue is that Notifications thinks it's sending an HTML email out but tags are being stripped so the "http://ShortenedURL.com/somethingReallyCoo..." that should point to "http://ShortenedURL.com/somethingReallyCool" ends up pointing to "http://ShortenedURL.com/somethingReallyCoo"

Example:

My Canon SD1000 needs the rubber band tripled up to hold it in place:

While we're at it, the Sender currently says "Site". Could be something more useful like the username of the person who triggered the notification.

Yeah i saw that, it's frustrating. I think it's a collision of the input filters and the mailer... i bet there's others out there who've dealt with this.

That wasn't quite it, it was for the "subscriptions" module and we use "notifications", but I think it may relate to the option "use printer-friendly URLs" on this page: http://publiclaboratory.org/admin/content/node-type/note

I'm attempting to uncheck that for print-formatting, since it's under the heading "Printer, e-mail and PDF versions". Maybe this will allow the urls to display fully.

That didn't work - nor did turning it off for PDF versions, or globally here: http://publiclaboratory.org/admin/settings/print

I wonder if you have to flush caches or something...

ok i figured it out -- i went to "messaging settings" in the "messaging & notifications" menu and under "Message body filter " i chose "messaging plain text" instead of "html and markdown". done!
