Xen Notices [Deleted]

[DaveM]

A link is emailed to. Any link that has previously been emailed to you will work.

Thanks I did not seem to get any new mail on this but I did find an old mail and downloaded it from that as suggested

The answer is yes.

You can use the notifications add on instead of the built in XenForo notices system by not creating any notices via the XenForo system and unticking the following option if you want to:

And then just use the one by Chris.

Thank you. That is the sort of answer I was hoping for/expecting.

I first and foremost apologize as I do not wish to look thru 88 pages of discussion.

My question is this: Can this be used instead of the Xenforo notification system?

My bad I actually meant to ask.

Can this be used instead of the Xenforo alert system?

I already gave the answer to that question:

It can be used instead of, or in addition to Notices.

Hi Chris, I sent you a convo regarding this, but I bought this addon sometime ago and was wondering if I could have the install files again? I got an invalid link error when I used an old install. I can provide my email via convo - thanks.

Our home page is wordpress, it would be great to have a solution that notifies all forum users when a new article is on the home page.

I've had this plugin installed for a while and it doesn't look possible, but perhaps a future feature consideration?

 

[Chris D]

Very unlikely, to be honest.

Hi, I can't work out why I don't see notification menu in the Admin Control Panel. I see it's option entry and permission entries.

I have been able to make Notification Center appear on Nav Tab and create notifications etc, so it all seems to be installed fine.

 

[Chris D]

Your Administrator account likely doesn't have the Manage Notifications permission.

Admin CP > Administrators > Your Name > Manage Notifications

 

[Craig W]

Thanks Chris, looks like it was forgotten, will get my install/admin guy to configure it. Really appreciate the speedy response.

 

[Skylined]

Is it possible to hide the notification from a specific page like for example forum_view?

 

[Chris D]

It uses the same criteria as Notices, so no.

Chris D updated Notifications with a new update entry:

Small fix for the "Please enter a valid value" error

@Chris D I've bought this addon and have version 1.8.0. How do I get the update? I can only press the 'Buy' button.
Thanks in advance!

 

[Chris D]

They will trickle through eventually. The emails have been sent.

 

[Axel B]

Ah sorry, m8. Was too impatient I guess Thanks!

Hey @Chris D, i have installed this and added 2 notifications then i uninstalled it to debug some issue with some error along side with other add-ons, now i re-installed the add-on but i couldn't find my previous notifications which is still there but i can't see them in CP or notifications center, they are still showing on the main board fine, any idea how to solve this?

 

[Chris D]

I suspect that's a bug.

However, in the first instance just create a new Notification and then delete it. That should rebuild the caches and stop any Notifications from showing.

Yeah that did the trick but i hoped to retrieve my old notifications, I also didn't have to delete anything just added the new one and the previous is gone.

I have one suggestion though, if you can provide a preview button to show the notification live to the admin or the maker in the notification center that would be nice.

Regards.

Uninstalling the add on removes all the data so losing it after uninstalling is expected. There is a bug that doesn't invalidate the cache on uninstall though.
