Notifications in elgg
By Arnaud
Hello,
I am new to Elgg. Can someone tell me how notifications system work ? When I subscribe to an email notification for a group (ex in https://elgg.org/notifications/group). Wich events are declared as a notification and when are they sent to me by email ? Is there a way to force notification sending? Should I have to configure a cron to enable notifications ?
Thanks for your help

First have a look at http://learn.elgg.org/en/stable/guides/notifications.html
A developer can register he/her own events to be handled by the notification system. Most default events are 'create', for example when a blog or discussion is created.
no
Yes, the 'minute' cron handles the notification system (see http://learn.elgg.org/en/stable/admin/cron.html)
Thanks a lot
