Customizing Share Invitation email?

Hello,
I decided to test the latest stable version of Alfresco and its new share interface. I was attempting to customize the email template for share and assumed that it was the same one used in the Alfresco Explorer, however it turns out that the email invitation for external users uses some different template. I am wondering if someone could tell me where to find this template so that i can customize it.

Thanks,,

Thanks Mike,
I will check that template, though it did not seem like it was the one that was being generated when i invited users to a Share site.

By default, it surely is this one, which is called invite-mail.ftl

Wow, not sure how i missed that one. I guess i just did not realize the extra email template folder.
Thanks so much guys.

Sir,

i am new to alfresco and need your help.

In my installation the template file is located at
…\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\invite-email-templates\invite-email.html_de.ftl
Actually that is the only file where the text appearing in invite E-Mail can be found.
When I change some text in the template, save the file and restart Tomcat, the change is not reflected in new E-Mails.

For me it seems like the text is already compiled or cached somewhere. What needs to be done here?

Thank you !

dhu,

You should modify the file invite-email.html_de.ftl directly in share : data dictionnary>email model>invite. Upload the new file version in Share.
