[](#developer-notes)

### Notification event types

[](#notification-event-types)

Notification event types can be filtered using `'notification_events','notifications'` hook. Users will be given an option to unsubscribe from notifications about these events or batch them into a digest. Note that some instant notification events should not be added this list, e.g. password reset and other account related notifications should remain instant.

### Notification Testing

[](#notification-testing)

You can disable outgoing email by switching to File Transport in plugin settings, this will instead write email as txt files to the filestore under `/notifications_log/zend/`

- Host: smtp.gmail.com
- Port: 587
- Secure Connection: TLS
- Auth: SMTP with AUTH LOGIN
- Username:
- Password:

### Sample SMTP config for SendGrid

[](#sample-smtp-config-for-sendgrid)

- Port: 587

- Auth: SMTP with AUTH LOGIN

### File Attachments

[](#file-attachments)

To add attachments to your email, add an array of `ElggFile` objects to notification parameters:

```
notify_user($to, $from, $subject, $body, array(
	'attachments' => array(
		$file1, $file2,
	)
));
```
