- being-discussed
Motivation
Suggested by a user. I can see how it would be useful.
Proposal
Would it be possible to add in a field to the admin section of
CMFQuestions where a site administrator sets an email address and can
get either an email message when someone completes a questionnaire or a
daily update of how many people have completed with a few stats etc?
Implementation
This is probably quite a complicated procedure, Plone has no basic email notification system built in. Perhaps something like PloneSubscription or PortalTransport could be used rather than writing from scratch. Although maybe it's just a matter of sending off an email everytime someone submits.
Extension to idea
We're also looking for this type of capability, but with one extension. Our users want to be notified about the submission of completed questionnaires, but only for the sections pertinent to their specific interests, so if a questionnaire has 4 question blocks, notification for block 1 goes to Department A, notification for block 2 to Department B etc... complex maybe, but very useful to provide a filtered view for these users.
Cheers Phil
