"sending unseen notifications as email" admin option(s) #1260
Comments
That is basically exactly the same. I don't think that we will go through the effort of rendering them in a second place a second time. But when the below topic would be different I could see where your request comes from.
No, that's correct. The API call is called "Mark processed" but for performance and optimisations and ease of API use we always deleted them. |
To the actual issue:
This was done as a design decision and is a sensible default.
That is correct. The biggest issue is the technical limitation which also causes the bug from #1173 |
mmh, okay. Well, receiving such notification emails isn't wanted by anyone on our instance. It's just an inconvenience. (Especially when they are triggered while you're out-of-office anyway)
I guess that might take a while. (Though, it depends on what "long" is for you.) |
Hello @nickvergessen! I'm currently working on the admin setting page for new user defaults. And I'm wondering why did you say in #1173 that defaults should be inserted on LoginEvent? Isn't it better to set them on UserCreatedEvent, so that once user is created, if he has e-mail, his colleagues can mention him and he will get the email without even signing into account once? |
We can also do both. LoginEvent means it would recover existing users as well. So yeah, maybe subscribing to both is the best idea. |
@nickvergessen any thoughts on #1266? |
Fixed with #1266 |
NC23 provides an email notification for unseen notifications (see #1058 and #1074).
But there is no option for admins to set defaults and/or enable/disable it.
Currently, it is enabled by default (after visiting settings once; see #1173 ).
IMHO it should be disabled by default unless an admin said differently.
Additionally, I noticed, that the EMail gives you a neat overview of your notifications. Is there any way to view the same without receiving the Mail (eg. accessing manually)? Sure, you can click on the bell and scroll a bunch, but that's not the same.
As a follow-up, it might be useful to
checkmark
a notification, instead of dismissing it. But I don't think a notification history is kept or is there?I personally just look at the notifications but never push the X, as that's an unnecessary action for me. And it helps to view some of the most-recent notifications again, even if I've already checked them out. Sometimes they act as a 'shortcut' for me too.
Should I create another issue/request for this?
