Blog review notifications to author

I'm still looking for where these sit in the admin area if anyone can help? 

After reading Is there a setting/permission for the default moderator role to allow direct messaging to a user in the moderation queue? I wonder if it's a token we need to be looking at? Although that's for content being moderated, not content being reviewed 

It's a completely different message Liz. The email subject and the body text bear no resemblance to anything going out by way of abuse moderation notifications so it must be a different notification message somewhere. 

What I'm looking for is the notifications around the blog review process and not abuse moderation. 

The content for notifications that go out related to Workflow Reviews can be updated via the Automation Studio for the related Automation (Phase-based Review or Simple Review). 

Tom Paolucci  Just circling back to this one. What I need is for the 'revision notes' to also go out in the email notification to the blog post author regardless of whether their blog post has been denied (and revision allowed) or denied completely. We need a way of telling authors WHY their post has been denied (with no revision allowed) so the notes section is relevant for both scenarios. Is there a way of including the 'revision notes' in the notification that goes out for a flat denial? 

Howdy LisaM - Yes, it is possible to include the revision notes in the denial notification with an update to the automation resources. I've included the steps for this process below. 

1. Login to the community as an administrator
2. Click on the Pencil icon
3. Click Administration > Automation > Automation Studio
4. Scroll down and click on Review workflow automations
5. Click on the widget Simple Review
6. Select Resources from the Components list 
7. Scroll down to Notification_RevisionRequested_Body
8. Click in the value box to see the text for the body of the notification
9. At the very end of this text you will highlight and copy </p>{revisionnotes}
10. Scroll back up to Notification_Delete_Body
11. Click in the value box and at the end of the text paste </p>{revisionnotes}
12. Publish the Staged Changes
13. Duplicate this process for the Phase-based Review widget

Hi Tom Paolucci 

I tried the steps above but when the email comes through it just has {revisionnotes} in the email body and not the actual revision notes!

What have I missed out? 

This is the text for the review requested message that works perfectly:

<p>Your {contenttypename}, "{title}," has been reviewed but revisions have been requested. You can revise the {contenttypename} within the moderation queue and resubmit it. Contact the admin team at <a href="mailto:community-online@theiet.org"> Community-online@theiet.org </a> </p>{revisionnotes}

This is what is now in the Denied message:

<p>Your {contenttypename}, "{title}," was denied by reviewers and will not be published </p>{revisionnotes} 

which just has {revisionnotes} in the line of the message where the actual notes should be

I've been able to recreate this behavior in a test environment and will report it as a bug.

Noooooooo not a bug! 

So close and yet so far......
