Thanks plugin – Notification?

Hey,

It seems that users don’t have a notification when a “thanks” is done on a post. They didn’t see this notification or it’s not possible right now? 

Thanks!

What option do you have selected for notifications??

Are you using the notification template tag (not required but another method). .

I can’t see something about notifications in the documentation. Where can I find it? It’s my issue, I can’t find a way to activate a message for the user thanked for the post. It’s not mandatory, but would be nice to have a notice.

I admit to being unsure what @mr-papa was referring to in his post. As far as I am aware it is not possible right now bit we can note it for the next time the plugin gets some feature update. Unless I am missing something of course…

yikes!  completely misread your original post…  thought we were talking about mentions plugin…  yet, linked to the thanks plugin help..  so double whammy!

And yes, @yellow-swordfish is correct – no way to current notify a user – at least not directly…  you can use the plugin api if you wanted to add some small code yourself…

basically, hook into the action ‘sph_post_thanks_actions’ that is fired when a post is thanked… then you could send a pm, email or any other action you might like…

and as @yellow-swordfish says, we can consider something in the next update…
