Defficiencies in 'Email space users'

tdombos

I would really like to see the following things happen with the 'Email space users' action:

1. The From field of the email sent out to be the name and email address of the user who initiates the sending.
2. Optionally send a copy to the sender's email address as well.

How hard would it be to implement this? Any suggestions on where to start?

Hi,

It's not hard. You just need to extend this action. Just by looking at the UI I can tell you that you need to:

1- Change jsp/actions/mail.jsp to include a checkbox to select whether or not to send e-mail to self.
2- Extend org.alfresco.web.bean.users.EmailSpaceUsersDialog to change what goes in the from field and send email to self if check box is selected.
3- Don't forget to override the manged bean backing this dialog. The managed bean is called EmailSpaceUsersDialog and is defined in faces-config-beans.xml.

You might have to do a few more things but this should get you started.

Hope this helps,

I am by no means a Java expert. I managed to figure out what goes on in the code and how to change it, but how do I push those changes to my compiled alfresco? Do I have to recompile the whole Alfresco war etc. to implement this small change?

Hi,

You should deploy your extension as an AMP file.
