    Hi guys,

    First of no issues but some small feature suggestions. (Which i have been doing manually now with NotificationX since the first release).

    1] Make the way the username is displayed an option to choose from.

    Now it is First Name + First letter of last name.
    I think this should be an option where we can choose from;
    – First Name + First letter of last name
    – First Name only
    – Display name (nick/name)
    (For obvious reasons I would not suggest username)
    That way you can use it more flexible and in more scenarios.

    2] Allow the content to be something else then just post title.

    We can select Post Title to be displayed which is ok.
    But what I am currently changing every time is making it the comment content (as my use mainly focuses around blog / WP comments usage at the moment)

    I would like a dedicated parameter for comment content in the WP-Comments scenario.
    In the back you could do something like;

    $comment_data['comment'] = wp_trim_words( $comment->comment_content, 10, '...' );
    (you could even take that one step further and make the word count (the 10 here) an option)

    3] I dont like gravatar … for various reasons.(One being it is an unneeded external call)

    I would like to see an option for the normal local avatar.
    What you now do is a get_avatar call which returns gravatar but with below you could get the local avatar.
    $avatar = get_avatar($data['email'], 100, '', $data['name'], array('extra_attr' => 'title="'.$data['name'].'"'));

    Once again make it an option as it will make NotificationX more flexible.

    This last one is one I just realised;

    4a] Sound seems to be coming.
    Looking at the demo on https://demo.notificationx.com/?product=v-neck-t-shirt I see you are looking into sound as well. Nice, please make it so the sound is something we can decide upon.

    4b] Sound compatibility
    Also I noticed that the audio.play is not playing on Firefox. This is due to Firefox being a bit more strict on audio.play events. Not sure what you can do to remedy this.
    I am using a user to user notification solution running which does trigger even on Firefox.

    I looked at their code, maybe it may help you get this working as well;

    function um_notification_sound() {
    	var $bell = jQuery('.um-notification-b');
    	var hasNew = $bell.hasClass('has-new');
    	var liveCount = $bell.find('.um-notification-live-count').html().trim() || 0;
    			
    	var sound = new Audio( um_notifications.sound_url );
    
    	if (hasNew && liveCount > $bell.data('liveCount')) {
    		var promise = sound.play();
    
    		if (promise !== undefined) {
    			promise.then(function (res) {
    				console.log('Notification sound played!');
    			}).catch(function (error) {
    				console.log(error.message);
    			});
    		}
    	}
    	$bell.data

    Dont mention it Rupok!

    In all fairness I like they way you guys are setting this up. (and when I like something I tend to give input/feedback). Personally I like the FOMO approach but I always wanted a solution that looks at actual data and not fake data (like some other options out there do … and while I get that there is market for that … who are you ‘fooling’ in the end is something I always have to think about)

    But when it comes to the comments regard … you really are the first to do so as far as I know. And that was something I was really looking for. Inform everyone (and not just a user to user relation) about activity. That will always cause more interaction.

    Anyway keep up the great job guys ??

    Kind regards,
    Patrick Dankers
