Do not use MySQL statement-based replication with this add-on

Features

  • Per-alert 'mark read' links on each alert
  • Multi-select ability to mark alerts as read or unread.
  • Avoid unexpected marking alerts as read by browser prefetch, this may result in alerts not being marked as read as expected.
  • Global option, enable/disable alert summarization
  • User Option to prevent marking as read when accessing the alerts pop-up
  • User Option to prevent summarization when accessing /accounts/alerts page.
  • User Option to adjust summarization threshold
  • Only mark alerts that are viewed on alert page/alert pop-up, not all alerts
    • If an alert was explicitly marked as unread, skip marking that alert as read when the alert pop-up is touched.
    • Per-alert 'alert bell reads' configuration

Supported content types for alert summarization

  • Posts, conversation, profile post, profile post comments, xfmg comment reactions
  • User follows
  • Post quotes

Performance impact

  • Alert pop-up can fetch a number of unread reactions to attempt to summarize them
