As you can see in the screenshot below, there are a total of 4 reactions on my post (2 
and 2 
). But my notifications say there are 2 reactions and 3 likes on the post.
Prerequisites:
- I am not sure if this is needed, but my “notify when liked” preference is configured to “always”.
- The reaction plugin is enabled, and at least a second reaction is configured for
discourse reactions enabled reactions. All the other reaction settings are default. - You have your account and 4 test users
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a topic with your user
- Impersonate/log in as your first test user and select the reaction on the post (I used )
- Impersonate/log in as your second test user and like the post.
- Impersonate/log in as your third test user and like the post.
- Impersonate/log in as your fourth test user and like the post.
- (optional) Take a look at the author’s notifications - there is 1 notification about 4 reactions indicated by a heart icon.
- Impersonate/log in as your fourth test user again and change your like into a reaction.
- Check the notifications of the post author
Expected result: Likes and reactions are grouped as one notification saying 4 reactions either with a heart or a reactions icon.
Actual result: There are 2 notifications - one about the 2 reactions and one about 3 likes (1 and 2 other users), which is a total of 5.
I think it would be great if the notification remained a grouped notification, including both likes and reactions. If separating them is unavoidable, it would be nice if the number could at least be fixed.
