OJS sends an empty email to all users when we create a new announcements.
We check the box.“Send Notification”
I think there should be the announced text in the mail, not empty.
I looked the prepared emails in journal menegement, but couldn’t find automatic annoounce mail.
But just to confirm, you don’t see the template in the Journal Manager’s “Prepared Templates” area? If it’s not there, you’ll need to create it. OJS only loads from the .xml file when the journal is created (or the locale is reset, which you probably don’t want to do).

Resetting is not problem. Because we use english and don’t need any special template.
Meanwhile I have resetted just. But noting changed. There is still not “NOTIFICATION_MAILLIST” in the template list.
Thank you for your patience , I am not programmer.
I created following template, but didn’t work. (I sent new announcements, users received empty mail)
And also following explanation written in “edit email” page of NOTIFICATION_MAILLIS template
“This email is sent to unregistered users on the notification mailing list.”
There must be a mistake, because this NOTIFICATION_MAILLIS should send to registered users.
You’ll also want to check the NOTIFICATION template. It is cut off on your screenshot, but also appears to be empty.
There are two ways to subscribe to notifications. Unregistered users can subscribe to a mailing list by submitting their email address. They will receive NOTIFICATION_MAILLIST on publication of a new announcement. Registered users can subscribe when logged in. They will receive NOTIFICATION on publication of a new announcement. The difference is that NOTIFICATION_MAILLIST contains an unsubscribe link in the email body.
Those email templates were introduced with OJS 2.3.0, but should’ve been added by the upgrade script during the upgrade process. If you upgraded from pre-2.3.0, then something must’ve happened there; if not, the templates should’ve been installed when the journal was created.

Without knowing the installation’s history, I can only guess at how this happened – but if everything else seems to be working OK, I’d continue using it. A missing email template is not necessarily indicative of more widespread problems.

Actually we have two problems as I mentioned somewhere in this forum
earlier.
“Submission acknowledgment” mail is not send when new submission made.
We solved this problem temporarily as replaced old
“AuthorSubmitStep5Form.inc.php”
“DB Error: The SELECT would examine more than MAX_JOIN_SIZE rows; check
your WHERE and use SET SQL_BIG_SELECTS=1 or SET MAX_JOIN_SIZE=# if the
SELECT is okay”
Rather than discussing those here, could you find the previous threads that dealt with the issues and continue there? That would help to keep the forum organized.
