481561 - Turn email notifications back on

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Websites Graveyard :: spreadfirefox.com, defect)

Description

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

Looks like email notifications were turned off until issues in Bug 429407 were fixed.

Can we test and see if we can turn these back on?

Comment 1

[Paul Booker]

Its already turned on.

Comment 2

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

Going to use this to track getting them working properly again.

These seem to be on but UX appears to be missing from projects still.

Comment 3

[Alex Buchanan [:abuchanan]]

I'm confused on what's up with this bug.  Can someone elaborate what needs to be done here?

Paul, you're familiar with OG, any ideas?

Thanks

I'm a little confused here as email notifications are on

I recall that in another bug i stated how to go in and configure "OG Notifications" to your exact requirements. I'll add some more information shortly ...

I have received the email notification today ...

Ah , are you asking if scheduled mail can be released automatically on a cron schedule ? If so that will need to have that setup by a systems administrator

Useful link if you want to test the message notification functionality ...

Hey there:  When we tested this last week emails were not going out on stage.  It appears that they now are.  The formatting is a little screwy, but I will file a separate bug for that and mark it 3.1.

@Mary

Shall we resolve this bug as fixed ?

Comment 8

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

I set up notifications using the access in my account and did receive notification when I created a new document. 

We just need to turn on the UI now for the group notifications box as far as I can tell.

Hey there -  I am looking around for where I can change this setting and can't find it here:
https://spreadfirefox.authstage.mozilla.com/admin/messaging/notifications or

https://spreadfirefox.authstage.mozilla.com/admin/og/og

Paul:  Can you point me in the right direction?

It's here https://spreadfirefox.authstage.mozilla.com/admin/build/block

under disabled - group notifications

@Mary

Is this what your after ?

Comment 12

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

Turned this on myself so I could make sure the UI is still the same, not sure if the configuration needs any work.

There are 3 mentions of group, not sure how to override them, these are probably hard coded.

Also the email subscription option links to a manage page that only lets you leave a project.

My guess is it would be easier to create a new block with the needed links than trying to make this one work.

Comment 13

Talked to Lucy - what she is recommending is a simple block with "Subscribe/Unsubscribe" link in it.  Is this possible?  Lucy - Let me know if I missed anything, but this approach makes more sense than what is going on currently.

Comment 14

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

yes, that would be the idea. We might also want to include the rss link in here as well while we're at it, but that's secondary.

BTW turned this back off again as it's not useful as is.

Comment 15

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

We should probably count this as fixed and file a new bug for the new sidebar as we're not just turning on the built in one.

Comment 16

[Mary]

Turning this back on and will play with it.

Comment 17

[Mary]

So far so good -- sent another message from Firefox Cat lovers.  Let me know when you get it!  Then I'll mark it fixed.

Verified FIXED; we all tested this and got one email per group.
