Hi,
I've built a small notification plug-in that just allows users to subscribe to a single cck field that used in one of my content types.

I now want that the emails users receive not only contain the fact that some content was added, I'd like them to contain a link to that new content, and maybe ever it's teaser.

I can't find the theme function/hook that will enable me to do so.

can you help me?

Thanks, Alex.

Hi
have you thought about contributing this plugin? I'm having to use the 'subscribe to taxonomy' method, when i'd rather use a cck field, and am not a programmer. also, i can't seem to get the 'Subscribe to this' links to appear on content anyway! (only subscribable through user account).

I have posted an issue on this with no response yet. Anyway, CCK would be very useful.
Thanks!

The thing is that right now my plug-in doesn't provide a UI for choosing what fields you wand to allow subscription to, I just hard coded this setting...

If I'll generalize my plug-in sometime, I'll gladly contribute it.

Any advice?
after looking around in messaging setting It seems all I need is a way to change the [event_list] token in the digest event, and insert some additional data in it.

I've manage to do this by changing the notification_content module, something like:

case 'event types':
// Node inserts are not grouped by node but all together. The digest will look like:
// New content has been submitted
// - Story Title1 by Author1
// - Event Title2 by Author2
$types[] = array(
'type' => 'node',
'action' => 'insert',
'name' => 'New content of type [type-name] has been submitted',
'line' => '[type-name] [title] by [author-name] [node-teaser]',
'digest' => array('node', 'type'),

Is it possible to change this behavior without hacking the modules?

You have some options to change the message formats:
- Editing the templates for each event type.
- Providing / using new custom tokens, any module can plug-in into the token mechanism and build any custom text as a token.
- Using the theming functions provided by the modules
theme_notifications_digest_body()

Plus there are lots of hooks all across the module you can implement, including the _message_alter() hook at the end of the sending process.

Anyway, if you guys are missing any themeable function or hook at some point, let us know...
