Hi, So these are some more iterations for the notifications layout http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/NotificationsImprovements9xT... I've played with User centered vs. Event centered and variants for displaying the avatars, user names and event names. Let me know what version you prefer. Also you can fork the prototypes if you want to make some small changes. Thanks, Caty On Tue, Oct 24, 2017 at 12:47 PM, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi Guillaume,

Any news on this? I'd like to implement this quickly because 9.10 is coming :)
This the current status: * Caty proposed some improved layout for displaying notifications * I commented about the need to display event + type, and about the need to have a link to see the diff. I also mentioned that we need to work on the mail template display * Caty replied and updated her proposal to take into account those comments. * I kind of like Caty’s proposal focused on the user. We want to favor contributions and I think it helps. It also makes the UI more appealing visually. * You mentioned that you’d prefer a proposal more focused on the event rather than the user * Thomas agrees with you * Edy mentioned some extra points
I have also mentioned that the diff we propose is too technical for many users.
Yes and we have 4 solutions:
* Solution 1: make it simpler to understand for everyone * Solution 2: have a wiki admin UI level option to select whether to include diff or not in the default template + user-level profile UI option (ie. per user) * Solution 3: have a singe button in the mail, that, when clicked, displays the diff (which is hidden by default) * Solution 4: implement 2 mail templates (one for simple users and one for advanced users) and let the users choose in their profile which one they want to receive + have a wiki admin UI level option to decide which is the default when not overridden by the user.
Thanks -Vincent
So I guess we need to decide about whether we show the avatar as in
Caty’s
proposal or not, right? Is that what you’re asking about Guillaume?
On my side, I don’t see the issue in displaying the user avatar large vs small. The events are still ordered by page events.
Thanks -Vincent
Thanks

Note that you have a mail template for the notifications too. It's https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/ 83b76ed4c26954aa2755bbdce23b32c41725ac06/xwiki-platform- core/xwiki-platform-notifications/xwiki-platform- notifications-ui/src/main/resources/XWiki/Notifications/ MailTemplate.xml#L23 but it's not documented yet.
This mail template allows you to customize the header and the footer
of
the email, but not the actual content.
To be precise, each *event type* can have its own template or failback to the default one (https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/ acdf68f4c0d20a9b44ea48eec4df808e22c54548/xwiki-platform- core/xwiki-platform-web/src/main/webapp/templates/ notification/email/default.html.vm)
So it's a template *per event type* and it's not linked to any user choice. But we could add some options in the default template for example.

That’s one option but there’s another which is to provide the ability to choose which mail template to use in the Admin and provide several templates for different needs.
For example for the xwiki.org watchlist we absolutely need to be able to see the diffs without clicking a “technical details” link for each notification. It could be ok if there’s a single “technical details” link for ALL notifications that shows all diffs at once.
