Hello Everyone,

We are working on improved notification, subscription and activity system of AnsPress since last month and we think its ready. We are going to release a beta of 2.4.

We have created 4 tables to improve notification system:

ap_activity      - store activity.
ap_activity_meta - store activity meta.
ap_subscriptions - store subscribers.
ap_notifications - store activity notification.

Question, answer and comment notification are improved for better notification. From now on participants will not get notifications of every question activity unless they are following question. Check below:

Asker notification:

  1. Notified for new answers.
  2. Notified for new comment on question.
  3. Notified question edit.
  4. Notified for answer edit.

Answerer notification:

  1. Notified for comments on own answer.
  2. Notified for answer edit.
  3. Notified when answer is selected.

Commenter notification:

  1. Notified for followup comments.
  2. Notified on parent post (answer/question) edit.

Let us know what you think about this improvement.

This is exciting! Great work to you and your team!!

Some people will always want to have a more fine-grained approach and keep their mail to a minimum, while others are likely to accept more traffic in order not to miss anything.

I think its a very good idea.

Yes, its even easier to customize notification and subscription because of new system.

Comment box not appearing issue will be resolved with 2.4 beta?

I think its already solved, try RC version

What is RC version? I just tried with the github anspress-master and comment box is still not working

I think you have overridden comments template, and remove the must have part. see here: https://github.com/anspress/anspress/blob/master/theme/default/comments.php

Do not edit codes after this comment

Thanks for the anwer Rahul. I didn’t edit or override comments template, unless my theme did it by default (using divi).

My question is probably somehow related to this changes.

  1. In profile I can see questions and answers. In activity I can see reputation gained for comments as well. But where do I see all person’s comments? It is as essential part of a profile as answers for me.
  2. Upvoting comments. Like stackoverflow.com, it’s very useful to instantly see which comment worth reading.

If this does not belong here, I can create a new question.

It can be added easily. you simply need a comment query to list all comments of user.

Hi Rahul,

How about the anynomous email as already requested here https://anspress.io/questions/question/anonymous-email/

Can we have the email function for anynomous as:

– They need to provide Email to post question

– An option (checkbox – should be default checked) to allow them to follow the question. (email notification)
I guess it would be very useful for sites using this plugin for guests
