TEMPLATE TRANSLATION
|
36
|
--------------------
|
37
|
|
38
|
Notification templates are passed through t() before being added to the
|
39
|
email's body. Therefore, for you to translate them to other languates you
|
40
|
need to:
|
41
|
|
42
|
1. Enable the Locale module.
|
43
|
|
44
|
2. Choose a node in which you are not the auther and has comments and comment
|
45
|
on it. This will send an email to the author and other commenters.
|
46
|
|
47
|
3. Open the Translation Interface, located at
|
48
|
admin/config/regional/translate/translate
|
49
|
|
50
|
4. Search for the template strings and add the translations.

OPTIONAL MODULES

|
55
|
Performance: If you notice that your site is very slow when submitting
|
56
|
new comments it is possible that the problem is with sending the mails.
|
57
|
One option is to use the Queue Mail module
|
58
|

COMPATIBILITY NOTE
|
61
|
------------------
|
62
|
|
63
|
Comment Notify is not built to work on sites where other notification related
|
64
|
modules are installed (modules like Actions, Notify, Subscriptions, and
|
65
|
Organic Groups are popular examples). If you install both Comment Notify and
|
66
|
one of these other mail modules on your site in addition to Comment Notify
|
67
|
it may send duplicate messages and/or have user interface elements that will
|
68
|
appear to be duplicates and confuse your site visitors.
|
69
|
|
70
|
The suggested configuration in these instances is to separate Comment Notify and
|
71
|
whatever other mail module you have installed. Common ways to separate them are
|
72
|
by content type or user permissions.
