3. Customizing your Cinnamon server

(written for Cinnamon version 1.0.2)

Internationalization of mail messages

For the Cinnamon server to send password reminder and email validation mails, you have to add some messageIds and translations to your messages table. This is best done by using the AdminTool's I18n features.

List of messageIds

• password.reset.mail.subject = Subject line of the password reset mail which informs the user about how to reset his password.
• validate.email.subject = Subject line of the email verification mail.
  

The templates for the mail messages are stored in the folder "templates" in SYSTEM_ROOT (the path of which is defined in your cinnamon_config.xml).

In the templates folder you will need to add a subfolder for each supported language, along with a translation of the mail message templates. No translation, no mail. After you have configured your server, there will be only one folder in templates - "und" containing English versions of the mail and HTML templates for the "undetermined language" which is the default language.

List of email and HTML templates

• reset_password_mail.vt
• reset_password_error.vt
• reset_password_form.vt
• reset_password_success.vt
