Currently there is no way to have e-mails sent to someone other than the system administrator when a comment is posted on a article. It would be nice to select a user, or other e-mail address to send the moderation e-mail too for multi user sites where other people are responsible for different areas, not just the system admin. This works for the news system where you can select to send a comment to the author or system admin.

This request refers to the ContentComments and ModuleComments classes, which both do not support sending notifications to the author of the article they are included in. It should be fairly easy to add it to the content element, because the content element knows about its parent article. The module, however, does not.

Why not simply set the email recipient in the module / content element?

That would be inconsistent with the news and events modules on the one hand and it would lack the flexibility of notifying the author of each article instead of one static recipient on the other.

Well the exact same options of the news archive (like selecting if notifying author or admin) should be in the module/CE …

That's what I said above. No problem for CEs, but potentially a problem for modules, which are not related to articles but only to pages.

But they are always executed on a page …

aschempp avatar Oct 06 '15 07:10 aschempp

But we need to know the article, not the page.

Again, I would set it in the element. That’s way easier. You enable commend in the news archive. You enable comments with a content element…

Are you sure you got my point?

leofeyer avatar Oct 06 '15 18:10 leofeyer

Sorry, I didn't get your point… :D
