[EP-tech] Re: Notify on Approve

That sounds very interesting! Could you please provide any files/references for that?
For the moment I am trying to send the e-mail just to the depositing user and I have changed the "z_notify_authors.pl" file to something like this 

        my( $self ) = @_;

        my $eprint = $self->{processor}->{eprint};

        my $user= $eprint->get_user();
        my $email = $user->mail();

        return 1 if defined($email);
but I guess I should define the $email to the "MoveWithAuthorEmail.pm" instead... 

Am I going to the right direction or not?

Best,

G.
At the Open University, we have recently implemented a function (with the kind help of eprints services!) to send a notification to the depositor plus the authors of an article when the article is moved to live from the buffer (it doesn't include editors but could do with a simple modification). It makes use of the username entry in the creators fields and user table to identify local authors (and get their email address from the user table) so may not be entirely helpful outside of our configuration, but it may be of some help?

Indeed it's working!

The only problem is that it doesn't send e-mail to the Editors but
only to the authors as long as their e-mails are on the corresponding
"z_notify_authors.pl" file.

Is there any way to bypass/modify this/other file and send e-mail
directly to the e-mail of the depositing user rather than the authors?


user->mail() does it by default. Check the code you can find on other
plugins (the reject one does send an email to the user).



Best,

I was wondering if someone has used the "Notify on Approve"
functionality (found here: http://files.eprints.org/623/ ) with
EPrints version 3.3.7 or higher!

I see that there is a file for v.3.2.

Is it going to work with v.3.3?


try it. Looking at it, it is quite similare to Move.pm so should work.
