How to use the notifications dropdown menu - more clarity is needed


Using Jamroom

researchcooperative:Whether or not other users are OK with the notifications page, I am not OK with it.
This is why you need to do user testing.

How to use the notifications dropdown menu - more clarity is needed


Using Jamroom

Strumelia:This implies 'something' going on.
To me, this suggests that they didn't want to change the level of notifications.

Strumelia:
As a minimum solution, I'd like to see a 'help' language string that we can customize, right above that dropdown as PJ suggested... so we can point out to our members the fact that it exists and has options.

That seems like a good solution.

Everyone can leave it blank and PJ can explain to his users how a dropdown works in 5000 words or less.

Using Jamroom

Your members who turned off notifications entirely probably didn't want notifications.

Your members who haven't changed from the defaults are probably happy with the level of communications.

The only way to find out why they have or haven't changed the defaults is to "ask" them.

Just guessing then.

In the interest of clarity, can I ask what it is that you are trying to achieve? You want your users to opt out of site communications, why is that?

But are you actually testing this with users, or just relying on your own thoughts as to what they might think?

It just looks like too many words to me.

Makes something overcomplicated when it's actually quite simple.

AWS Backup


Using Jamroom

It seems to be amazon London, if I create the bucket elsewhere the page saves fine.

Thanks

AWS Backup


Using Jamroom

Thanks Brian.

The errors are gone in AWS but it looks the same on my end.

I get the same (huge debug log and errors) when I save the form without "daily backup to S3 " checked.

I have reloaded the AWS and Backup modules, same result. Integrity check, server check all fine.

I will try debugging in the Backup module a bit later on.

Daily Offsite Backups form


Using Jamroom

That was in Firefox.

Loading the form in Safari I can see that the values have not been saved, all fields are empty on first view in a fresh browser.

A while after saving the form, I get this in Safaris Web Console:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) https://virti.co/backup/admin_save/global/__ajax=1

So I guess I'm seeing this because of my other thread?

This looks like a problem at amazon's end. Their console is showing server errors.
