Is it save to remove a handle (e.g. ^site_title) from language string?

Question

I haven't tested it yet, but what happens if I remove one of the language strings.

Example qa-lang-emails.php:

'a_commented_body' => "Your answer on ^site_title has a new comment by ^c_handle:\n\n^open^c_content^close\n\nYour answer was:\n\n^open^c_context^close\n\nYou may respond by adding your own comment:\n\n^url\n\nThank you,\n\n^site_title",

Let's say I just write:

'a_commented_body' => "You have a new comment, check out: ^url\n\nThank you!",

Will it cause errors?

Answer 1

I had same confusint a week ago and have tested by removing languagte and adding string and it worked without error. However I am also not sure if it is depend on case by case.

Answer 2

I removed the ^site_title from the begining of the email messaging templates ( strings you've mentioned above) and nothing bad happened
