[Suggestion] Notification Tray For Hive

[Deleted member 219079]

A simple app that'd check every 30 seconds or so for new stuff for you:
-A new post on sub. thread.
-New PM/VMs
-Friend/Contact requests
-(Selectable) New (approved) resource
-(Selectable) New DC resource

By notification tray I mean the bottom right corner in windows. It'd show a simple box in the bottom right corner, like:

Settings would open the settings for the program, like:

Check interval: 30/60/120 s
Username: SomeGuy
Password: *****​

Click on the "new posts"?

I think what jondrean wants is a notifier application.

It'd still open it to a web browser.

I think it'd be better to have user cp outside of browser in the notification tray area, so you could quickly respond to stuff.

It's clumsy to have whole internet browser open for few links, if even that.

Sounds cool, but I don't have the time for this. I can however build an API later on when we get a notification system.

For what language?

I could start learning it

It would of course be a HTTP API so you can use anything, but don't expect this to pop up in the next few weeks.

If implemented, this should be optional for the user.

This sounds really nice.

I remember thinking about something like this a while ago.
Never said anything. Must of slipped my mind lolz.

But having notifications for activity that you want to follow instead of having to refresh is really convenient for those that would like to concentrate on other things while keeping up to date without much effort.

There already is the email notification for replies, but that is ONLY for threads and email notifications is quite old school.

I'd love to have this. Could be an issue if it tabs down my games though

Not an issue for me specifically since my keyboard got a extra button that makes it impossible for any program to tab it down. Gaming keyboard ftw.
