Can't mute system messages

Contribute Feature

AI 生成的摘要

The issue of not being able to mute system messages is being discussed. Drew_Warwick initially reported that even after muting the “system” user, they still received notifications. Yuun pointed out that the setting “disable edit notifications” can be enabled to prevent notifications from the system user when downloading local copies of images. However, codinghorror clarified that system messages and staff (admins and moderators) cannot be muted by design. Lilly also discovered that although staff members can be added to the mute field, the system overrides it, and notifications are still received.

The Discourse forum I’m using downloads local copies of embedded images, and it sends you a notification every time it does this. This doesn’t affect me and is unimportant and irrelevant to me, so I decided to mute the “system” user:


After doing so though, I still get notifications from system and they create a notification bubble over my avatar:

So I guess this topic is kind of two things in one:

  1. The system account cannot be muted
  2. Downloading local copies of images shouldn’t notify the poster

For this bit, the setting you’re looking for is:

disable edit notifications: Disables edit notifications by the system user when 'download_remote_images_to_local' is active.

It’s in ‘Other’ in admin/site_settings.

You can’t mute system messages, that is by design. You also cannot mute admins, moderators = staff.

Alright, thanks Yuun. I’ll ask the site administrators to turn on that setting.

抱歉挖坟，但我刚发现（至少在我的网站上）静音设置允许用户在字段中输入员工，但系统会覆盖通知。我能够将版主和我自己（管理员）添加到我的测试用户帐户的“静音用户”字段。正如预期的那样，“忽略”字段不允许我选择员工姓名，但“静音”字段允许我选择并保存（我回去验证了它已保存）。测试帐户仍然像员工没有被静音一样接收通知和消息。
