Overview
New-notification badge, automatic refresh, notification title/body/time, toast alerts, opening/closing the panel, and clearing all notifications. Distinguish in-app notifications from the optional browser push-notification subscription. Core. Follow the steps below in order, then verify the result before moving on. Account preferences belong to you, while organization membership controls which shared workspaces and data you can access.
Before you begin
Open this workflow with the account and organization that own the relevant data. MediaFox evaluates access at the time of each action, so a visible page does not always mean every control is editable.
If you are following this guide with a teammate, agree on the organization, page selection, date range, and intended result before either person saves changes.
- Sign in with the MediaFox account that owns or can access the relevant information.
- Open My Settings or the account dashboard and clear unrelated filters before you begin.
- This is a core MediaFox workflow. Organization page access and your assigned role can still limit what you see or change.
How to use the in-app Notifications panel
Work through the controls from top to bottom. Keep the current organization visible in the navigation and review inherited or existing values before replacing them.
- Open the correct workspace
Sign in to MediaFox and open My Settings or the account dashboard.
- Open the relevant action
Use the page controls to use the in-app Notifications panel. Read inherited values and warnings before changing anything.
- New-notification badge
Review new-notification badge and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Automatic refresh
Review automatic refresh and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Notification title/body/time
Review notification title/body/time and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Toast alerts
Review toast alerts and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Opening/closing the panel
Review opening/closing the panel and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Clearing all notifications
Review clearing all notifications and choose the value that matches your intended result.
- Review and confirm
Read any validation, permission, or confirmation message before saving. Continue only when the selected organization, pages, dates, and settings are correct for “Use the in-app Notifications panel”.
Check the result
The task is complete when your account or membership state shows the intended change. Reopen the item or refresh the list once to make sure the saved state is not only local to the current form.
For publishing, moderation, imports, exports, or background processing, also check the resulting lifecycle or activity state. A successful save can still be followed by platform processing, collection, or review.
- Confirm the organization, page, item, and date or timezone shown in the result.
- Look for a success message, updated status badge, activity entry, or changed timestamp.
- Keep the item ID or public URL when another teammate needs to verify the result.
Troubleshooting
If the result is missing or an action is unavailable, do not assume the data was lost. MediaFox can hide controls because of role, page access, organization allowlists, add-ons, lifecycle state, or an external platform limitation.
- Confirm that you are signed in with the email address that received the invitation or owns the setting.
- Check whether the invitation is still pending and has not expired.
- For organization-level access, ask an owner to review your membership and assigned role.
Availability and access
This feature does not require an add-on, although permissions or organization settings may still apply.
