Hi,
I have a question on the UserMailer::EmailNotifications class. Would it
be possible to move the settings of the protected variables out of the
actuallyNotifyOnPageChange() functions and in the initialisation routine
(or some other routine)?
If that is not possible, is there another way to compose a notification
message without sending it out (and without replicating the whole class).
What I want is to modify the list of watchers. I have a fairly small
wiki, where 90% of the edits happen by known editors (who have the
'autopatrol' permission). I'm currently using the
$wgUsersNotifiedOnAllChanges to check edits for spam (some more 7%) and
legitimate edits from guests (the remaining 3%). However, I would be
much happier to get only mails for all Unpatrolled changes (i.e. those
not autopatrolled). So I'm writing a small extension which defines
$wgUsersNotifiedOnUnpatrolledChanges.
Obviously I like a hook that allows me to modify the list of watchers,
but failing that (it's apparently still on the todo list, see r44960)
I'm using the RecentChange_save hook.
However, I seem to fail to use the UserMailer::EmailNotifications class.
Any suggestions?
1. Is there still a way to use UserMailer::EmailNotifications?
2. Should I rewrite the functionality of UserMailer::EmailNotifications
in my extensions?
3. Is it possible to change UserMailer::EmailNotifications?
4. Is there perhaps another way to accomplish what I like to do (I only
know about Extension:AutoWatch, but that is not exactly what I want)?
