    How to set Host:Title in DNN

    When I do a test email it says it is sent from DNN Corp.  I changed the template in DNN to use Portal Name however I do not see an easy way to set this to something else.  I believe the only way unless I am mistaken is to edit the database manually.

    Just checking if I am missing something.  Thank you.

      I had a similar issue, the language files weren't editing properly. After a few tries it seemed to take OK.

        In the global language RESX file you can find SMTP setting EMAIL_SMTP_TEST_SUBJECT.Text

        I made an issue report here :https://github.com/dnnsof...Platform/issues/3345

        I changed this resource to [Portal:PortalName] SMTP Configuration Test

        However there is a second place to edit this as well for the New Website Portal Sign up notification email. It uses Host Title as well. The proper way to set this would be to edit the database itself

        Edit HostSettings HostTitle, HostCurrency, HostUrl, and HelpUrl. We can currenlty edit HostEmail.

        I think all of these need to be brought to their own page under a Settings => Host Settings tab. I will try to do this if no one else does in the near future. I really want to make DNN run without having to go to manually edit the database or run database scripts to tune it back up. Although not a huge task still a bit cumbersome.
