그룹의 DM을 무음 처리하기

I know it is possible to mute user DMs

but the same functionality doesn’t seem to exist for group DMs.

I understand it is possible to leave a group and so no longer receive DMs. This seems a blunt tool.

Use case: we have a group we use for private help requests that users can DM. We have a help triage group that are rostered on for a week at a time to deal with these requests and find someone who can assist. During the off-time it would be good if they could simply mute the group DMs for a time period until their next rostered on week.

It looks like this functionality exists for muting users, but not groups.

Am I missing something?

Another feature besides muting is perhaps for your individuals to consider a DND (do not disturb) schedule. I believe notifications won’t get sent during the time the user is in DND.

I haven’t tested this out explicitly but they do however get the notifications back when they get off the DND schedule.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I don’t think that would work in this case as they don’t want to mute all notifications from our discourse instance, just the ones from the support group.

공감합니다.

다만, 사용자의 요청은 매우 특수한 경우로 보입니다. 사용자가 스스로 선택하여 가입한 그룹의 알림을 음소거하려는 것이기 때문입니다. 사용자가 해당 그룹을 탈퇴했다가 다시 가입할 수 있으므로, 이를 제품 기능으로 지원하고 싶지는 않습니다. 아직 해당 기능이 없는 것으로 알고 있으며, 원하신다면 Contribute > Feature 요청으로 전환해 주셔도 됩니다.

I beg to differ. Under the principle of least astonishment I’d argue it is surprising that this is an exception. Discourse has very user configurable notification settings so I was expecting that groups would be selectable in the mute DMs dialog.

If you’re self-hosted or not n a plan that supports.

Private Topics Plug-in might work. Instead of using Group mail box use this plugin for which groups can respond to private topics.

You could set maybe group to watch first post? Not sure if notification for category could be set group wide to turn on & Off.

But maybe the assign plugin or custom m automation might work.

Otherwise maybe a custom Feild that they can each toggle on and off manually.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes that does look perfect for our needs. Unfortunately we’re on a hosted plan that I don’t think supports this, but I will ask.

@aidanheerdegen great news!

It appears I have mistaken, and that there is such a feature, but it is quite hidden.

Your individual users will have to access it via <site>/my/messages/group/<group-name>. So they can toggle the notification :bell: / :bell_with_slash: as and when they would like to avoid notifications for the group. Is this what you are looking for?

(Special thanks to @moin for pointing this out. :kissing_cat:)

Yes! Awesome! Thanks a bunch, and thank you @Moin.
