Email Notifications Different for Contact Templates
Posted: Mon Aug 03, 2015 10:53 am
Is there a different place I need to modify the email notificaiton message at? I currently under Admin->Notification Managment have the following:
I get some messages that are sent this way but on the Contact Templates messages I get messages that don't line up to what I have specified above.
I am trying to remove the Hostgroup and Host Notes/Duration to eliminate any confusion for our end-users since there is nothing populated there. This contact should be using the notify-host-by-email so not sure if that is configured elsewhere or where all these notifications are managed. I was trying to figure out where and how to create a custom notification but I am trying to walk before I start running.
