Possible Future Updates

• Extend the alert notifications so they can optionally go to PM and/or Email.

FAQ

• Q : Is it possible to create a recursive notification when using a Forum as an alert target? For example, the Alert Thread is created in a forum which automatically sets new threads to Moderated?

  A : No. This scenario crossed my mind very early on. Because of this, the plugin will automatically exclude that forum from the notification system. You will still get the Alert Thread being created, but it will not trigger a new alert.

• Q : Do notifications occur if a Staff member manually changes a post to Unapproved?

  A : No. Alerts only occur when a thread or post is first created (ie: New). Subsequent changes to the post do not create further alerts, and there are no plans to incorporate this as an option.

• Q : How does the Auto-Reply and Auto-Close system work?

  A : After an Alert Thread has been created, one of your staff will be tasked to approve the original thread/post. When using inline moderation (ie: not via the ModCP/AdminCP) you can have an automated reply and/or an automated closure of the the Alert Thread itself. This will help people identify when items have been dealt with. If the original thread/post is unapproved, and subsequently approved again, one of two things will occur. If the Alert Thread is not closed, a further automated reply will occur. However, if the Alert Thread is closed, a reply will not be made. It should also be noted that the Alert Thread must still reside in the designated Alert Forum. If it gets moved somewhere else, nothing will happen.
