[Bug 1403176] Re: activity_get_viewaccess_users() doesn't always return users

 

Yeah, I don't think we should send a notification when a page is shared
with "Public" or "Logged-in Users". It would, indeed, be too much, both
in terms of spaminess, and using resources (on a large site).

Title:
  activity_get_viewaccess_users() doesn't always return users

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When handle_activity() is processing a viewaccess change it uses
  activity_get_viewaccess_users() to see who is affected by the change.

  Part of the sql check is to check the view_access table to see what
  users are involved.

  But the view_access option of 'loggedin' doesn't set any ids in the
  usr column. This means if I set a page from no access to logged in
  users no-one is notified of this change.

  I'm not sure if we are wanting all logged in users to be notified or
  just have a disclaimer somewhere stating that choosing logged in users
  will not notify everyone of the change.
