Is there a way to keep a Notifications stream or history?
-
Do notifications stay recorded anywhere to be able to create a notifications page with a history of all previous notifications read and unread.
-
The notifications component is not really set up to do this. Notifications get deleted after they are seen, instead of just being marked as read. There is a column called ‘is_new’, which you could probably manipulate to do what you’re trying to do, though it’d take a fair amount of fishing through the codebase to make sure that you caught every attempted deletion and replaced it with a mark-as-read. Then you’d need to create the markup for the notification history page (which would be straightforward).
This is a pretty good suggestion for a future enhancement. I encourage you to open a ticket on trac.buddypress.org, ideally with a patch
