%sitename not showing in collaboration email templates

Sunday 28 September 2008 6:54:28 pm

In settings/override/site.ini.append.php I had this:

[SiteSettings]
DefaultAccess=duty
SiteList[]=duty
SiteList[]=duty_admin
SiteList[]=eng
SiteName=
SiteURL=

This broke my email templates because "%sitename" in design/my-site/templates/notification/handler/ezcollaboration/view/ezapprove/author.tpl - wasn't showing.

So commenting-out SiteURL in the above file made it work by making eZ take the correct value from settings/siteaccess/my-site/site.ini.append.php. But shouldn't this happen though if eZ "allows" entries like "SiteURL=" in ini files?

The system that obtains these variables (the ezini() function I think) could be modded to only get a value from an ini setting if it's <b>not empty</b>, so "SiteURL=" would be ignored but "SiteURL=my-site.co.nz" would be used instead when declared in settings/siteaccess/my-site/site.ini.append.php for example.

Failing this, a message logged to error.log would be useful.

Thoughts?
