[Bug 1740330] Re: Improve inactivity and expiry warning messages
Environment to be tested: Master
Browser to be tested: Any browser
Precondition:
1. A user with 'Site admin' access exists.
2. Make sure to allow emails to one email account by adding the following two parameters to the config.php file:
- $cfg->sendemail = true;
- $cfg->sendallemailto = '<valid email>';
Note: ‘Valid email’ here is your personal email address so you receive all outgoing emails no matter the recipient.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in as ‘Site admin’.
2. Navigate to Administration menu > Configure site > Site options.
3. Click the 'Account seetings' drop-down menu.
4. Set the 'Default account inactivity time' to 1 day and click the 'Update site options' button.
5. Open the terminal and connect to the database.
6. Update the user table in order to change the last login by giving the command ' update usr set lastlogin='2018-01-13 16:44:24', lastlastlogin='2018-01-12 09:10:17' where username='admin';'
7. Run the cron manually by adding /lib/cron.php to the end of the wwwroot of your site.
Expected result: The content of the Account inactivity warning email
that is sent to the user looks like the following:
Dear xxx,
Your account on Mahara will become inactive on 1 February 2018.
Once inactive, you will not be able to log in until an administrator re-
enables your account.
You can prevent your account from becoming inactive by logging in.
Regards,
Site administrator.
Note: Validate the content by viewing the text in both 'Original HTML'
and plain text.
8. Similarly set the 'Default account lifetime' to 1 day and click the 'Update site option' button.
9. Open the terminal and connect to the database.
10. Update the user table in order to change the last login by giving the command ' update usr set lastlogin='2018-01-13 16:44:24', lastlastlogin='2018-01-12 09:10:17' where username='admin';'
11. Run the cron manually by adding /lib/cron.php to the end of the wwwroot of your site.
Expected result: The content of the Account expiry warning email that is
sent to the user should look like the following:
Dear xxx,
Your account on Mahara will expire on 1 February 2018.
If you wish to keep your portfolio content after your account expires,
we recommend you export your portfolio via export/index.php.
If you wish to extend your account access or have any questions
regarding the above, please feel free to contact us.
Regards,
Site administrator.
Note: Validate the content by viewing the text in both 'Original HTMl'
and plain text.

Title:
Improve inactivity and expiry warning messages
Status in Mahara:
In Progress
Bug description:
The account inactivity email is:
Your account on Mahara ePortfolio System will become inactive within
1095 days.
Once inactive, you will not be able to log in until an administrator
re-enables your account.
You can prevent your account from becoming inactive by logging in.
Regards, Mahara ePortfolio System site administrator
Please do not reply to this message.
-----------------
I suggest the following changes to make it easier to read:
1.
=> Instead of mentioning the number of days, can we give the exact date, i.e. "will become inactive on 14 December 2019."?
If that is not possible, "within" should be changed to "in" as it is
an exact date and not a date range. If possible, please also change
the days to something more sensible like "3 years" for large numbers
or months if it is more than 31 days to make it easier for people to
see.
2.
"{site} site administrator" should sit on it's own line right below "Regards,".
