As you know, there is a function in MyBB that whenever a member receives a PM, the member would get an Email Notification in his/her email box.

The message comes in default...something like the below:

------------------------------------------------------------
MyBB Mailer to <xxx@mybb.com>

XXX,

There should be a function to edit this template to what we want, a function to change the subject of the email change, sender name, content of the message and etc.

  1. i would like something like this. similar to the way you can edit the templates in the admin of mybb you should be able to customise any email template that mybb uses, whether it is for registration, welcomes, warning, pms, new replys.

  2. I believe this is stored in a language file, so you should be able to just change the language string in the Admin CP or the file itself to whatever you want.

  3. Yeah all the email addresses are in the language files. I think that's where they should be. It doesn't make sense having another section in the Admin CP to do this because it would just have to imitate the language editor (you need different translations for each email).
