stage change notification mail shows SQL table name instead of TCA title
0%
Description
The mail displays the changed item as tablename:uid. This internal data may be given as additional information, but what should be sent is the TCA title of the table and the TCA title of the record.

Behavior has not changed. Example for generated mail text:
---
Subject:
TYPO3 Workspace Note: Stage Change for tt_content:171, sys_file_reference:103
Body:
At the TYPO3 site "My test site" (http://mytestsite.tld/typo3/)
in workspace "Example workspace" (1)
the stage has changed for the element(s) "Changed a heading" (tt_content:171, sys_file_reference:103) at location "/Congratulations/Features/" in the page tree:
=> Ready to publish
User Comment:
"My first content update"
State was changed by (username: v7test)

IMHO it would be much better to change it like this:
---
Subject:
TYPO3 Workspace Note: Stage Change for content element 171, file reference 103
Body:
At the TYPO3 site "My test site" (http://mytestsite.tld/typo3/)
in workspace "Example workspace" (1)
the stage has changed for the element(s) "Changed a heading" (content element tt_content:171, file reference sys_file_reference:103) at location "/Congratulations/Features/" in the page tree:
=> Ready to publish
User Comment:
"My first content update"
State was changed by (username: v7test)

The intended audience for this mail are editors which may not have the technical background to relate table names to the elemnts changed in BE. So I would really prefer "translated" (tt_content --> content element) descriptions of what's going on. The neccessary information can probably be fetche from TCA.
Maybe it would be even more helpful to change the subject of the workspace notification to something simpler like:
"TYPO3 Workspace Note: Stage Change fpr page /Congratulations/Features/".
This would relate changes to something really simple (a page) which is a concept all editors should understand. It would also help to understand the relevance of a change much easier as editors could easily understand which page (branch) has changed.

The subject can be modified using Page TSconfig, see https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/workspaces/latest/singlehtml/Index.html#configuration-options
tx_version.workspaces.stageNotificationEmail.subject = TYPO3 Workspace Note: Stage Change for "###RECORD_TITLE###" (###ELEMENT_NAME###)
In general, the notification template handling is a... it's sub-optimal. Thus, rewriting it and enable HTML message would make more sense.
The current marker-based logic comes to an end with many records that might be nested or dependent as well.
