[Bug 1381837] [NEW] Changing message notification default setting

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

When you log in to Mahara as a student, the default setting for message
notifications is to send the notification to email. I think this should
be changed to "Inbox"  (or even create a "Show notification" option) so
the notification icon appears at the top of the Mahara page.

This could also be extended to make a lot of the default options "Show
notification". For example "You have just recieved feedback"
notification set to display as a notification by default and if they
don't like the notifications they can turn it off.

The younger gengeration growing up with Facebook and Twitter are used to
this UI, and rely on it. I would bennefit Mahara because majority of the
users are students and this makes Mahara more interactive.


Cheers,
Jinelle
