How to Localize Email Notifications of Feedback System
Edit online

The feedback-enabled WebHelp Responsive systems use emails to notify users when comments are posted. These emails are based on templates stored in the WebHelp directory. The default messages are in English, French, German, and Japanese. These messages are copied into the WebHelp system deployment directory during the execution of the corresponding transformation scenario.
