OMI Notification Template Modder for Kanboard

I've been using Kanboard installed on my own server, to get around paying for Trello. It works pretty much the same way, and is free, plus has a very small code base which makes it easy to modify.

However it's not a good idea to modify the core code in-case you wish to update the app. There are constant updates and obviously modifying core code is not the best practice. 

I had the need to modify the email templates, but obviously this is not a good idea to modify them within the core code base. So best way to do it is create a Plugin that has access to override the templates.

And that's exactly what I did. A new plugin "OMI Notification Template Modder for Kanboard" that allows overriding the templates without messing with the core code base. Huzzah!

What it does, is it grabs a list of all notification templates, from the Kanboard core code, and lists them with a link [Create from Core] This link , when clicked , copies the core template into the plugin corresponding directory, when it then lets you modify it, and it overrides the core template. With templates added to the plugin, they are listed as templates you can click to modify within Kanboard itself, without leaving your browser :)

It also adds an asterisk to show which templates have been modified. 

You can download and give it a go from the OMI VCS server :

It does require Kanboard with write access to the Plugins directory. But I guess if you read this far, you probably have Kanboard already!
