Adding a tag to a notidication email template

The notification of a new submission (New notification from {$siteTitle}) currently includes the paper title and a link to the submission. I would like to add a tag to also include the submitting author name - is this possible? I have tried inserting {$authorName} but I just get the code in the email.

Hi @suenugus,

Not as of yet - there is some work being done for this in future versions of OJS: Improve UI to add variable data to emails · Issue #7743 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub
But, if a variable is not used as part of the default template, you likely cannot just insert it in any template. Please see here for a more detailed explanation: Can prepared emails get the section the submission was sent to? - #24 by rcgillis
