Notifier

General

Notifier allows you to direct notifications to users. The base module gives you the ability to send notifications to a user. It creates a Notifier content type in which you can then create the notices and direct them to specific users. There is also a notifier view that provides a block and a page for users to view their notices.

Notifier uses the Twitter Bootstrap library to display the notices. There are four different notification levels: error (red), warning (yellow), success (green), and info (blue). When a user "x"'s out of a notice, via AJAX it will mark the user as having read that notice, and it won't show up on the block anymore. The view page by default will show the user all previous notices.

Submodules

Notifier OG

Notifier OG adds to the notifier the ability to direct notices to groups. It adds its own view with its own block and page, identical to the regular notifier view, except it is directed in a group context. Also, within groups, you have the ability to show the notice to only group members or to anyone.

Notifier Rules

Notifier Rules adds rules conditions and actions, so if you use Rules you can easily set it up to create notices based on certain events.

Dependencies

The base module depends on Views (3.x branch), CCK, Features, CTools, Strongarm, and JQuery Update. JQuery 1.4.2 or greater is required, which the current recommended release for JQuery Update (2.0-alpha1) only uses JQuery 1.3. You need to download the 2.x-dev version which will give you an option to use JQuery 1.3 or JQuery 1.7, then change the selection to JQuery 1.7.

The Notifier OG submodule additionally depends on Organic Groups and Spaces.

The Notifier Rules submodule additionally depends on Rules.
