Nathan Explosion Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Would it be possible to add the website name/title information into the notification? I use several sites that have IPB4.0 now and will end up having 4.1 soon too (as will my own 3.4.8 site eventually) The addition of the site name to the notification would help identify whether I really want to click on the notification or not.

Tripp★ Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 It's a good suggestion; but on mine it already comes with a domain: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 Interesting - I'm not seeing that on mine. Off to do a little bit o' browser testing!!! If that can easily be replaced with site name/title then perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Charles Posted September 15, 2015 Management Share Posted September 15, 2015 We can look into that yes. Unfortunately, as @Tripp_UK pointed out, it's not consistent across browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management Charles Posted September 15, 2015 Management Share Posted September 15, 2015 In other news: I love the new notification system. I find myself reading things more often and more quickly which is the entire point of any community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutoItScript Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I like the idea. I think a top level menu with "Unread items" will go down well on my forum. Anyone else feel the content title and the who/when/where subtitles are the wrong way around? The who/when/where is fairly irrelevant and it seems to be jumping in my face in the current style Edit: Oops, this should have been in the activity stream thread.

Makoto Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Chrome's browser notifications are awesome. They're mediocre in all other browsers. The solution is to convert to Chrome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Just now, Adriano Faria said: Or make it work in all browsers. You can't. It's a browser API. IPS has no control over how a browser implements desktop notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 If it requires Chrome, then it's another feature I won't use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 It doesn't, other browsers have desktop notifications, but they're extremely basic implementations. Chrome just has the best support for them by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we're stuck with how they show things but either way the whole idea of getting a little notification is really handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day_ Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Please tell me there is a way to mute the sounds when new replies pop up in the topic, I don't know if you have sounds for other instant notifications as well but if you do please please tell me there is a way to get rid of these somehow or it will drive me insane.

Pinto Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Is this only 4.1 or can I set up desktop notification on my current version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are using Windows 10 you can mute this or any sound effects in your sound settings. Just click on the speaker in your task bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now there isn't, but we could look at having a toggle in the control panel if there's enough demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 This is something that I also wish could just be implemented and configured in the browser API (notification sounds), but not even Chrome's notifications support that I believe. Anyways, I would support that as a toggleable option. I can see it being potentially annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I actually prefer Opera now myself. Which is now built on Blink. So essentially still Chrome. But better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus83 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Just a question. Is the new notifications system a good way to remove tapatalk in your opinion? I would like to convert users from it to the mobile version of my forum but they love live notifications they actually get on smartphone.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
