Enable All Email Notifications Upon Registration

c_costel

Simple Flarum Extension that will automatically enable email notifications for the new registered users.

Special thanks to @luceos for helping me hook into the right event.

P.S. I know I am not very good at the package naming conventions. Would appreciate any hints on that ?

Cheers!

EDIT

If you want to enable the notifications for your already existing users you can use this mysql query as an example:

UPDATE users AS target LEFT JOIN users AS source ON source.id = 1 SET target.preferences = source.preferences WHERE target.id > 1;

make sure user with id = 1 has all the notifications enabled.

It seems this package was never added to packagist.org. As such one cannot install it with composer by default. There are ways to go around this, eg adding it as vcs url in a repositories setting of composer. I urge the author to submit the package to packagist instead though.

c_costel

Hey guys! Sorry for the confusion. I did not think it would generate so much interest. I will try to dig up some time and submit it to packagist.org and write some simple instructions.

Cheers!

I am just placing this in case someone wants a non plugin way, if you enable a simple MySQL trigger you can do the same.

On the users table add the trigger on INSERT (you can do this in most database editors like Sequel Pro really easily). Just add the following.

Action time: BEFORE
Event: INSERT

SET new.preferences = '{"notify_discussionRenamed_alert":true,"notify_postLiked_alert":true,"notify_discussionLocked_alert":true,"notify_postMentioned_alert":true,"notify_postMentioned_email":true,"notify_userMentioned_alert":true,"notify_userMentioned_email":true,"notify_newPost_alert":true,"notify_newPost_email":true,"followAfterReply":true,"discloseOnline":true,"indexProfile":true,"locale":null}'

You can also use

CREATE TRIGGER users_insert BEFORE INSERT ON `users` FOR EACH ROW SET new.preferences = '{"notify_discussionRenamed_alert":true,"notify_postLiked_alert":true,"notify_discussionLocked_alert":true,"notify_postMentioned_alert":true,"notify_postMentioned_email":true,"notify_userMentioned_alert":true,"notify_userMentioned_email":true,"notify_newPost_alert":true,"notify_newPost_email":true,"followAfterReply":true,"discloseOnline":true,"indexProfile":true,"locale":null}';

To set the new rule using a query command.

anthonyrossbach This will make the command run only when a new user is created, so if they change settings later on even within minutes it wont revert it (so if they turn it off it will stay off for them).

anthonyrossbach You are a genius!

collins Sorry I was not on for some time, thanks. It's handy and does not break when files get replaced.

For the record, this extension still works, but it must (currently) be installed by following the approach described here, and then after it is installed, it must also be enabled via the flarum administrator "Extensions" settings page.
