how to exclude notifications for only ONE user? was created by carsten888

As a super administrator I get notifications of each post on my forum. I answer those posts with another account. Notifcations are active by default. I don't want to have to untick that notification-box each time I post something on the forum with my moderator-account. Is that possible (without a hack) ?

I'm sorry, but there is no configuration option currently to do it.

So you need a hack (should be easy one).

OK, got the hack done.

file:
components/com_kunena/template/default/post.php (where default is the template you are using, else template_ex/ or template_gray/ etc.)
line:

Code:

if ($ip != "127.0.0.1" && $my->id != $mods->id){

change to

Code:

if ($ip != "127.0.0.1" && $my->id != $mods->id && $fb_authorname!='carsten888') {

to exclude messages being send to user with username 'carsten888'.

Maybe add a textfield 'exclude notifications to these users' in the config where an array of usernames (id's would be better) can be saved.

hope that helps someone.

and in addition you can set a default for one particular user not to get noticifcations of posts.

If in your forum the default setting for getting notifications of posts is active, then you can disable that for one user. When that user makes a post, the checkbox to get notifications, which would else be selected, can be set to un-selected with this code.

file:
components/com_kunena/template/default/fb_write.html.php (where default is the template you are using, else template_ex/ or template_gray/ etc.)
line:

Code:

if ($fbConfig->subscriptionschecked == 1)
                    {
                    ?>

                            <input type = "checkbox" name = "subscribeMe" value = "1" checked />

                            <i><?php echo _POST_NOTIFIED; ?></i>

                    <?php
                    }

change to:

Code:

if ($fbConfig->subscriptionschecked == 1 && $my->id!=97)
                    {
                    ?>

                            <input type = "checkbox" name = "subscribeMe" value = "1" checked />

                            <i><?php echo _POST_NOTIFIED; ?></i>

                    <?php
                    }

where 97 is the id of the user which is not to recieve notifications.
