Play! Authenticate verification email

Question

I have been working through the play authentication usage getting started guide:

https://github.com/joscha/play-authenticate/blob/master/samples/java/Getting%20Started.md

I have got to the stage where users can login with a gmail or openID account or they can create a new account. Is there a way I can modify the text of the verification email that is sent to users?

Answer 1

Of course, modifying templates and emails is one of the key points of the PA, check templates in:

hint: Turn on smtp.mock in your config, so you won't need to spam your mail for tests, just in application.conf , place somewhere at the end the line (don't forget to remove it for the production):

smtp.mock=true
