Compatibility with Multi-language Content (v2) plugin

[TineStalmans]

Great plugin, it really has helped us manage and automate email notifications for course events from Moodle itself. We're facing one little detail though: our courses are often bilingual, which is why we use the Multi-language Content (v2) plugin. However, in the 'Course' field of the notification messages, the course name appears with the language tags, like this:

{mlang other}Strengthening Project Planning and Implementation{mlang}{mlang fr,fr_ca}Renforcer la planification et la mise en œuvre de projets{mlang}

Is there any way we can avoid this, e.g. by customizing the fields that appear in the email notification? Or could you work on compatibility with the multi-lang filter plugin for future releases?

Thanks in advance!

This is very specific to the other plugin called 'Multi-language Content'. The thing here is that there is no way to globally support this because there are many users who don't have this plugin installed in their Moodle deployment.

You may have to specifically customize it for your deployment by forking this codebase.

@TineStalmans Thanks for the post. We are facing the same issue and wondering if you find any solution from your project last year! Thanks in advance!

@mctliang I'm afraid I can't help you. We haven't been able to solve the issue. Rather, haven't tried to dive into the code and customize it...

@isuru89 Pretty sure that programmatically speaking, there is a way, but probably not a priority...

@TineStalmans There is a PR that has been raised by https://github.com/isuru89/moodle-local_reminders/pull/102/files
Since this is a specific third-party support implementation, I need to review and make sure that to support additional third-party implementations based on this. So might require a little bit of refactoring.
Allow me little time I could release this with a patch version sooner.
