Features

• Immediate or digested notifications, allowing multiple digest formats for deferred notifications. Digests are configurable and themeable.

• Pluggable subscription and event types. Currently included: Content subscriptions (thread or node, author, content type), Taxonomy
• Event and message queueing, fully scalable and configurable. Uses token module for message composition and text replacement, thus it supports pluggable tokens
• Pluggable and fully configurable user interface. A UI module is provided but it can be disabled and replaced by a custom UI module.
• Configurable per content type. You can have different types of subscriptions and a different UI for each content type

Dependencies / Requirements:

  The development of this module is done in sync with Messaging Framework, thus latest stable version of Notifications will work with latest stable of Messaging, and same for dev versions.
