Notify

·
matt2000 - September 28, 2003 - 16:45

The notify module allows users to subscribe to periodic emails which include all new or revised content and/or comments much like the daily news letters sent by some websites.

Even if this feature is not configured for normal site users, it can be a useful feature for an administrator of a site to receive notification of new content submissions and comment posts.

It can be extended to select specific content to go to users individually using Views module and Notify by Views.

Roadmap

Plans are have been proposed to either merge this module and Notify by Views into the Notifications framework, or improve Notify's code independently, if that is not feasible.

Details are on the Notify by Views project page.

You may comment via the issue queue for this or notify_by_views.

Support Status and Similar Modules

You are encouraged to also try subscriptions.module(use it together with HTML to Text module for prettier formatting), or notifications.module, as well as trigger and action modules which is part of Drupal 6 core, as possible alternatives. These are extensible frameworks and are likely to see more rapid development. You may also want to look at Organic Groups, which has built-in capability to allow users to subscribe to group content by E-mail or RSS feed, and a wide range of add-on modules.

There is a significant backlog of support requests, and it will be dependent upon the community for these to be answered, as bug fixes and improvements will be prioritized. Those who help out by answering & closing support requests and supplying patches will be more likely to have their feature requests answered. However, the primary goal of notify module will be to remain a light-weight and simple alternative to Subscriptions/Notifications, which requires no configuration, so not all feature requests will be implemented, even if they are a good idea. If you need more configurability, you should consider one of these solutions.

Current maintainer can be hired for customizations and other Drupal services.
