Can't edit the block, want to notify admin via email of new comments.

Permalink
Hi.

My site uses a custom version of the Guestbook Comments block as a forum. It was made by a developer who isn't currently available. As a result I can't edit the block and add an email to be notified of new comments.

Is there a way to go into the back end of the site to change this option and specify the email?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

the block may be hardcoded. and then edit the page type file in the themes directory.
if you attach that page to here i can show you what to change.

Thanks for the reply.

I'm not sure exactly where to go. Am I looking for a .php file? Basically what happens is this:

On a certain page (called add venue) admin can fill in some details of a form (that uses the New Forum Topic block). Once all of the info gets entered and a new forum topic is created, it creates a new page that has:

The details from the form, plus a customized version of the guestbook/comments block.

What I'd like is to get an email when a comment is posted on that page.

There's a folder called blocks under public_html (see pic 1) and in the big_venue_guestbook folder is this (pic 2)

Would one of these files be the one to change?

Thanks for the help.
