Réaction and notifications

It is beautiful reactions, but it seems that there is no notification for reactions. So, it can not replace the traditional votes You could predict something, a single notification of the type, User X to react ....? Uh, so it's very small icons.

    • I agree Baloo. Since the "Like" is now integrated into "Reactions" there need to be a notification (just 1 will do) that is like you said: "Member1 reacted to a... Post or Image" Of course link to the post/image that the member reacted to :) This needs to be done ASAP. I have users on my site reacting to posts but nobody knows they are so, it looks like nothing is happening at the site. 

      Also for UNA 10 Notifications in general, even when UNA.IO website was updated, the notifications were not completely working but seem to be now. Do we need to do anything after the upgrade such as disable/enable the notifications module or should they be working right off the bat?

      • Want to make sure this doesn't get lost 😉 

        • I think the way it is designed is not compatible with a notification. I do not know if there is a bug or it is planned like that, but a second click cancels the reaction.
          In my opinion this is not a good plan, everywhere in life, when you have reacted, you can not backtrack, change your mind, yes, but not cancel.
          If it's wanted, then it can not send a notification, because the cause may no longer exist, so in the end will lower the counter drastically, and give a feeling of decreased activity.

           Andrew Boon , bug, not bug, or something that did not think?

          • I somewhat agree with you Baloo but... It was no different when someone "liked" a post prior to the upgrade. If they did, you received an email notification stating that "Chris added a Like to ...." If I removed that like, which you could do, it did not send any additional notifications. It was just the initial "like" that did.

            So I personally feel that if someone reacts to a post, there should at least be that initial notification that "Chris reacted to a post..." If I choose to change that reaction or remove it all together, there should not be another notification. 

            • Can we get this added to Beta 2 as well please?
