More progress! Notifications are basically just an activity stream. So CB Activity is utilizing the existing functionality to provide the notifications. You can have notifications for anything you like using CB Auto Actions, but there's a few that have built in display parsing code to make this a bit nicer. Check out the current progress below.



Currently notification display is processed for likes, tags, and comments for activity, comments, and CB Gallery media. GJ notification processing is next on the list followed by a button icon that displays new notification could and on-click ajax display of the most recent notifications. A Joomla menu endpoint is also available to quickly reach notifications though a menu item.

When it's done. All I can give you is a guess (which no one should tell their clients!) of probably next week. The notifications implementation will be done this week and I still have the migration code to implement, which has to be done carefully and tested extensively to ensure old activity migrates correctly. I hoped for last and this week, but of course hit snags and had to redesign a few things.

Notifications button is almost done. This is generic enough to work for any kind of stream, but for now it's only applying to notifications usecase.

Notifications design is now completed. You can check it out below! Also you don't HAVE to use notifications in the CB Menu bar. This can be turned off within CB Activity configuration. Additionally you can output the notifications button as a field, as a module, or in a content prepare usage by setting asset to "notifications".



What does this really mean for CB Activity 4.0.0? It means all that's left is migration code and testing. This means CB Activity 4.0.0 is extremely close to release!
