Site Ideas

I would love the option to have move notifications disabled if you are logged into the site.

I want to get the move notifications if I'm not logged in, but it gets annoying to delete all the move emails when you've already seen the moves since you were on the site when they happened.

Just a thought. I'm pretty sure I've seen forums with this ability.

Great suggestion! I can't tell you how many times I had this thought. So cool. Please do it!

Create an RHP folder in your mail client and create a filter so that all emails from RHP get shunted to that folder.

That doesn't solve the problem my suggestion would solve.

Agreed, a special folder doesn't save the "dings" and the incoming messages. This is an EASY enhancement and so not controversial!

Is it? Lets see you write the PHP script to code it into the site then...

I'm never logged out of the site, and always want to receive move notifications.

If you don't want to delete the emails, use a filter as previously suggested to move them into another folder, so they don't clog up your inbox. You should still receive the ding message notification if you have email monitoring set-up.

There's no way of knowing you are currently really logged into a web site except at the exact instant you request a page to be loaded.

I suggested it as an option - hence you don't have to turn it on 🙂

The filter option doesn't solve the problem I'm talking about. It actually does nothing to solve it.

IF it is a technical impossibility, that's one thing and I'm not so sure it isn't.

Still would be nice 🙂

It is. RHP would be slowed down as it bounces around checking each user to see if they've refreshed a page or made a move in the last few seconds.


Why not just shut off email reminders when you log in, and turn them back on when you are getting ready to leave? It's a simple click.

I don't think that's what they would have to check to find out if a user was logged in.

You can do it in ONE mouse click from login? I'd like to see that trick.

Yes there is. For a start you could just set an inactivity timeout on the login sessions.

You forget, many people think the internet happens automagically. Anyway, if you use firefox there is ouroboros' script(s):
