ENotify

Like a white blank page?
More than likely error in your Sources/ManageSettings.php file

[Elizabeth II]

Yes a white blank page

I can't seem to see anything wrong?

Hei vbgamer I'd like to know something about this... How much does this thing load the server? Somehow like a chatbar or a shoutbox or more? Perhaps less?
Thanks in advance

[vbgamer45]

Closer to a  shoutbox in terms of resources.

[Ninja ZX-10RR]

Copy that, thanks!

I am not logged into the board. How to disable guest enotify ?

[vbgamer45]

I need to double check but close any other browser windows that you might have open while you were still logged in.

I'm using this mod and Invitation Message In Your Face [IMIYF] (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3107)

Both use the jgrowl notification things and have slightly different set ups.

I found when I had them both installed, the coding of one, took over the other (made the pop-up's semi transparent white, instead of black)

I've played around with the #FFF and #000 but now seem to be stuck with a completely black pop up

Much appreciated if anyone who knows what they're doing can merge these files so they work nicely! (attached)

Look at the page source, it is loading the css files twice (I mean, both files)... you should check it and left just 1 there... then try to addapt that to your needs

+

jquery.jgrowl.min.js is already present in the enotify.js (do not know which version is in there)

+

you are loading jquery file (the main function file, jquery) several times too

I've only got one of them uploaded at a time and have no idea what jgrowl really is to be honest
another 'issue' i've found is sometimes, I get a HUGE stream of notifications, like I've never seen any of them before?

Any assistance appreciated!

[luuuciano]

jgrowl is the "engine" that shows the notifications, enotify uses it too (embed inside)

Does eNotify use any sort of caching?

[vbgamer45]

None. The queries are different for each user.

Can't you have one for each member by including their member ID?

[Arantor]

There really is no good way to do this.

Getting every user's data all at once and caching that would cause massive cache fragmentation (= very slow, screws everything else up)

Getting each individual user's data and caching those as individual items would also cause massive cache fragmentation since you'd have to rebuild it frequently causing stuff to be moved in and out of cache a lot.

This is not uncommon to other platforms that do this, e.g. this is the reason Discourse will not run on anything less than 1GB RAM VPS (at all, they recommend 2GB RAM minimum just to start out, and by the time you hit 100k posts you can expect to be on a 4GB RAM VPS for that)

I think what I might do is simply incorporate the jgrowl to display PM popup notifications. It's the closest thing I believe to the notifications system incorporated in SMF 2.1. Real-time notifications, while convenient aren't really necessary, since most users get notifications via PM anyway. Correct me if I'm wrong.
