NotificationsModule.class.php is still logging version 1.1 while the download version suggests (v1.2 stable)

/**
* Module version

* @var string
*/
var $version = ‘1.1’;

Will this work with a/c ver 2.3?
avatar Erik 2010-01-27 1:52 #4
Has anybody tried this with 2.3?
avatar Erik 2010-01-27 2:10 #5
I really want to use this, hope it works with 2.3

I copied the folders as I do for other modules, but this one isn’t showing up in the admin interface. Am I missing something? The install docs don’t mention any other steps that need to be taken?

This looks like a neat module, but I’m wondering which version I should use. The original here (v 1.2) certainly is legit and comes with the imprimatur of activecollab. But now I see the v 1.3 up here…but the author is different and it comes from some other, non-activecollab website that makes you input personal information to do the download. Can anybody weigh in here? Is that legitimate?

Thanks
avatar Ilija Studen 2010-03-29 5:22 #10
Yes, it’s legit. Nirav has quite a bit of experience with developing modules for activeCollab…
avatar Nathan S. 2010-05-07 9:39 #11
Nirav, is there any log or status to show when the last notifications where sent out or if they were sent out? It would be great if this had a status update something like the scheduled tasks for AC where it says “last run at: xxxx time”—- just a thought. Also, is the time associated to the server time or the timezone setting for the AC? Not sure if you have some documentation on this—- it seems to work fine on most setups but I’ve got one that is causing me to ask more questions about how exactly it’s working. Thanks again

The system sends out email notifications for Tickets that are already on Trash.
Is the problem solved on 1.3?
avatar Nirav M. 2010-06-18 12:00 #13
Hi Guys,

Kind of difficult to track comments here.. May be the “Subscribe me” should default to yes on this page… But here goes.

@Nathan: There is no log of notifications sent out. It’s a good idea to add a log though.. Also, the time – it uses server time. So you should adjust the notification sending time per the server time.

@Cláudio: Thanks for pointing out the issue with Trashed items. We did not notice it earlier. Will add a fix in the next update.

I’m getting a fatal error regarding “System configuration option ‘notifications_notify_types’ does not exist”. I emailed you for support, hope this gets through :D
avatar amrit 2010-07-09 2:29 #16
which one we should be using 1.4? is it stable with 2.3?
avatar deuce 2010-09-17 5:55 #17
Great module, thanks!

I added Tasks to the list of notification types, perhaps you would consider including this by default in the next version. Easily done by adding to the $notify_types array (line 28ish) in /handlers/on_hourly.php:

$notify_types = array(‘Milestone’, ‘Ticket’, ‘Checklist’, ‘Task’);

Thanks again!
avatar Nirav M. 2010-12-17 11:07 #18
1.4 is stable, used by many people on aC 2.3.2. It also has support for notifications on Tasks. You can select from admin which objects do you want notifications for.

This is a nice update – but is the Project Manager notified if the resource MISSES the due date?
avatar Guest 2011-06-09 2:26 #20
Please help with allowing Notifications to alert the PM if the resource misses the task due date – this is essential to full collaboration. please please!
avatar Guest 2011-10-26 2:06 #21
Hello,

We have the notifications module installed and enabled. it should be sending out notifications 2 days before a task/ticket/checklist is due as well as the on the due date. I have several tasks and tickets created to test this but have yet to receive any notification that a task, ticket, or checklist is due in 2 days. I can receive all my other notifications without any problems, it just seems like the notifications module just doesn’t work. Do I need to schedule a cronjob to run this?

Currently all my tasks and tickets I am testing this on are set as due on 10/28/2011. Today’s date is 10/26/2011. That is 2 days away from the due date. I have the notification module set to send an email 2 days before the due date. I should have received my notification emails today.

Please help me with this, I really would like to get it working.

update to my above comments:
further update:

OK it JUST sent out the notifications for 10/28. The problem is that it is 5PM on October 28. These were scheduled for 1AM October 28.

here is teh settings from teh notifications module:
Automatic notification is enabled.
Notifications will be sent out 00:00-00:59
Notifications will be sent 2 day(s) before due date and the day it is due
Notifications will be sent only to responsible assignee regardless of company
System time (w/o timezone settings) is 00:08 <———WHY IS THIS OFF?

It shows the system time as 00.08 when it is really 17:08 on October 28.

If I check the date and time on the linux server itself it is correct. AC itself does show the correct date and time as well. Not sure where the issue is coming from with regards to the notifications module being off by nearly 17 hours. .

@CitznFish: I am experiencing the same problem. It’s using GMT for some reason. a bug?
avatar Surjeet P. 2011-11-14 5:41 #24
Read http://www.activecollab.com/forums/topic/7535/

May be the module developer didn’t take local time in account.
avatar Surjeet P. 2011-11-15 8:40 #25
My bad,
It says without timezone settings so it SHOULD show GMT.
avatar Guy C. 2011-11-19 9:50 #26
I am looking for a way to a project owner to be notified by email when a new ticket is submitted by someone. I’d like this to happen automatically without their need to first subscribe to the ticket. Can this module be configured to do this? If so, does rev 1.4 of the module work with AC 2.3.6?
