Email notification customization (Phoca Download 1.3.7)

[Zhah]

Hi there!

Could someone help me to customize upload notification emails?
I've already found where is to edit. It's in "administrator/components/com_phocadownload/helpers/phocadownload.php".
There i have found out how to edit text in message and how to hide some other stuff (like IP, website and date).

What i want to do is to place category name of uploaded file in this email.
I know that to do it there must be something like "$categoryname" in this string:

Code: Select all

#1441:      $messageText 	= JText::_( 'File') . ' "' .$fileName . '" '.JText::_('was uploaded by'). ' '.$name . $userName.'.';

And i also understand that i need to put there a function to get category name from database, but i don't know how to do it, because i don't know PHP

It would be great if someone can help me.

Please help me.

Hi, not allready on my PC so cannot look at the code and give any advice

Try to see Phoca Guestbook email function - there are e.g. some parts you can use (getting the ip, etc.)

I have looked through phoca guestbook files and unfortunately didn't find anything that could help me.
The topic question still remains.

Please someone help me.
