I could swear this worked in my early testing, as it’s key to my workflow: I could tag an existing post, and users with watching_first_post on that tag would get a notification. I’ve now found it does not work this way (…anymore..?) Or maybe it’s being ignored when there are already reply posts un…

FWIW Adding a tag to an existing topic should send a notification to anyone Watching First Post for that tag. I’ve just tested it on my test site ( 3108e3a6b6 ) and it still seems to be working correctly. Just to check, did you change the disable tags edit notifications admin setting at any point? (…

But how would this work? What if there are 10,000 old topics with the tag, do you get notified right away? Watch first post only notifies on the absolute first post in the topic.

That’s pretty definitive, so I must be mis-remembering, and had created test topics with the tracked tag present. Oh no – I’m not suggesting that setting a user to ‘watch first post’ via tag should do anything retroactive. But surely it’s common for posted topics to be tagged by staff later. I’d…

After about 60 iterations, Askbot and I have a rails script almost working. The script below – for topic 239 and tag ‘tagtest’ – generates the expected “New Topic” notifications with the correct topic title, and generates related emails. Some elements seem inert (message: and display_username: don…

At the point of tagging also carries risk, for example bulk tagging of 500 topics, then there are 500 notifications, goodbye your notifications. Or even worse, 100 tags by an admin 10 seconds apart. It is a tricky problem, we would have to very carefully roll up notifications to amend the feature …

[immagine] Sam Saffron: At the point of tagging also carries risk, for example bulk tagging of 500 topics, then there are 500 notifications Isn’t that the same if you bulk move topics to another category? Moving topics to another category triggers watching first post notifications.

Yeah, I just think generally recategorizing is far rarer that re-tagging so the scale of the problem is somewhat mitigated. Any chance you can do a quick screenshot of what happens when you bulk re-categorize 3 topics to a watch-first?

I wouldn’t dream of bulk tagging 500 topics, but curious, would it cause more strain than posting to an Announcements category that everyone Watches? (Edit: Oops, Moin posted while I was composing.) My own use case is maybe one post a week to “escalate” via notification emails. It feels similar t…

Just for curiosity/comparison sake, I’m testing the ‘watching first post in category’ behavior, and it’s not notifying upon recategorization. My email time window mins is 10, & I’m leaving 15min between steps. I’ve repeated this several times now… Create new topic in un-watched sandbox category.…

[immagine] ToddZ: Maybe it’s something about my process, but I can’t imagine what. Is it possible the functionality that got sorted in 2018 has become unsorted? Its very possible, this is a particularly complex area of the app. Notification on re-tagging / re-categorization needs a lot of gu…

O. M. G. I’m going to go crawl under a rock. I had forgotten those settings existed. I imagine when I disabled them I was thinking only of notifications like “an admin has added a tag or changed the category of your topic” – not actions like Watching or WFP notifications. I think there may stil…
