Notifications

The plugin can message the people involved when a delegation is created or revoked. You decide the policy for the site and, when the site allows it, the person who creates a delegation decides each time.

/admin/settings.php?section=local_delegateaccount_settings

The notification policy, the recipients and the messages.

1. Open Site administration > Plugins > Local plugins > Delegated account settings and go to the Notifications tab.
2. Choose the Notification policy: let the person creating the delegation choose, always notify or never notify.
3. Choose who receives it: the authorised user, the delegated account, or both, and whether revoking notifies too.
4. In the Messages tab, write a subject and message for each installed language, or leave them empty to use the built-in text.

Each recipient gets the notification in their profile language, or in the site language when theirs is not installed. A custom message is sent unchanged to both recipients, so write it to read well for both. Empty fields use the built-in text, which is worded for each recipient.

Tip

Use Send yourself a test notification, below these settings, to receive the saved subject and message for a language as both recipients would see them. Save your changes first.

Messages use the Delegated account notifications provider, sent as web and email notifications by default; users and administrators can change that in the usual notification preferences. Every setting is described in the settings reference.
