I have the Flag module set up so that the users can flag each other; there is a link shown on the user profile page. I would like to have those users who flagged another user to receive a notification by email when the flagged user post new content.
How can a user who is 'following' another user to disable email notification on new content?
I am using Drupal 7.
Notifications was still a bit wobbly on d7 when I checked last. I use http://drupal.org/project/privatemsg module which is nice because it keeps an online message as well as notifying via email (with permissions to change if you like so you can ignore users etc).
To set up the rule you add an event for the flag "A user has been flagged ....". Then any conditions you feel necessary and then Action "Send a message", recipient "flagged-user", author "flagging-user" and then whatever subject and body you like.
Solution: I created FLAG users, so that users can flag each other.
RULES is set up as follows: New event, node new content.
Elements (3 items)
1st : Fetch users who have flagged a user
Parameter: Flag: Flagname..., user: [node:author]
Provides variables: Users who flagged (usersflagged) Add another
2nd : Add Loop
Parameter: Lijst: [usersflagged]
List item: Current list item (list_item)
3rd : Send E-mail
Parameter: To: [list-item:mail], Subject: Sitename | [node:author]..., Message: Dear [list-item:name], ..., From: no-reply@sitename.com
Next step to discover is how to digest the mail. And I am wondering how much impact this rule will have on a busy site.
