Hi John,
There a two kinds of notification preferences. There is the immediate,
daily, weekly, monthly notification setting. This you can change as admin, I
checked at http://epf.eclipse.org just to be sure. The other kind are
notifications that are associated with a specific page. The idea is that if
you participate in a discussion about a specific page you also want to be
notified of comments made by other users. So if you comment on a page
default you will receive notifications when other users comment on the same
page. The user can turn this off but the admin can not I think. The user can
turn it off on the discussion page btw, not the profile page. I'll take note
of this as an possible future enhancement. I think what you want is ability
to disable an account.
As a workaround you could do the following (assuming you are using Linux):
1. Logon to app server using SSH and navigate to EPF Wiki app folder
Execute the following commands in terminal window:
1. export RAILS_ENV=production
2. ruby script/console
3. u = User.find_by_email('[email protected]')
4. u.notifications.destroy_all # this will destroy all page notifications
5. u.notify_daily = 0
6. u.notify_weekly = 0
7. u.notify_monthly = 0
8. u.notify_immediate = 0
9. u.save
If you have to do this often you can consider creating a script that accepts
email as a parameter and that will execute this command on the server using
SSH.
Best Regards,
Onno
