Chapter 4      Customizing Meeting Notifications

  How to Customize a Notification Template

To Edit a Notification Template

We recommend that you make backup copies of template files that you want to modify. You can copy 
the file to another folder or save it by using a different extension.

Step 1

Use Notepad to open the notification template that you want to modify.

Tip

We recommend using Notepad to edit notification templates because Notepad automatically 
saves the file by using the current file extension, .tpl. Other text editors can append a different 
extension to the file. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway recognizes the .tpl 
extension only.

Step 2

To modify the template, do the following:

  •

Edit, add, or delete permanent text.

  •

Replace, add or delete tags.

Step 3

Save your changes.

Step 4

Verify that the saved file has the .tpl extension. If .txt or another extension is appended to the file, delete 
the appended extension.

Tags That You Can Use to Provide Alternate Information

Table 4-1

 

lists and describes tags that are frequently used to modify notification templates.
