A collection of improvements to the XenForo Alerts system.

This add-on requires php 5.6 or newer.
This add-on requires XF 2.0.10 or newer.

Do not use MySQL statement-based replication with this add-on

Features
  • For threads/conversation/profile pages, automatically marks alerts as read from content on a given page when viewed.
  • Mark unread link for individual alerts on the Alerts page.
  • Supports the following add-ons:
    • Content Ratings 1.3.x
  • Global Optional, Alert summarization by selected content type or user
  • User Option to prevent marking as read when accessing /accounts/alerts page.
  • User Option to prevent summarization when accessing /accounts/alerts page.
  • User Option to adjust summarization threshold
Supported content types for alert summarization
  • Posts, Conversation, Profile post, profile post comments Likes
  • Ratings (From Content Ratings)
  • Various conversation related alerts from Conversation Essentials for XF2
Performance impact
  • Adds an extra column to xf_alert.
    • Code:
      alter table xf_user_alert summerize_id add int(10) unsigned DEFAULT NULL
  • 1 extra SELECT query per thread page request when the user has more than zero active alerts.
    • If there are alerts to mark as read, then an extra UPDATE is required.
Alert Summarization Performance impact
  • On accessing alerts above the summarize threshold, fetches all unread alerts and attempts to group them in PHP.
  • On successfully generating summary alerts, 2 queries are done. 1 insert to add the summary alert, 1 updating summarized alerts.
