Description
I think it is almost a necessity for the Software to have A LOT more email notifications. Can we introduce a feature where users in the system get email updates for task assignments and when there are updates to tasks assigned to them?
In particular, when a user is assigned a task by another user, an email should be sent. Otherwise, unless they are actively checking "My Projects" they may not be aware of the assignment. (And, even if they are, if the list is long, they might not notice :-)
I agree, this would be a very useful feature. Being able to add comments/follow up to a specific task would not be too shabby either.
I thrid that!
Task Notification checkbox added to every place a user can be assigned effected by a task (adding/editing tasks, adding task lists).
Task notifications handled the same way Milestone notifications are handled. They are only sent if the user logged in is NOT the user the task is being assigned to (already assigned to).
Patch attached.
I'm testing the patch and it's working fine for me.
The only thing I saw that is missing is the template file for task_assign that must be created.
File: (application\views\notifier\task_assigned.php)
