How can I configure the notifications globe icon to display connection requests? Or are connection requests displayed elsewhere?

Also, I thought "likes" and this sort of thing are visible by clicking on the Notifications globe icon. I don't think this is working correctly.

I am testing locally and do not have Mercury Mail configured, so I have not tested the email notifications under Configuration > Connections. I just need to know what appears in the Notifications pop-up when you click on the globe icon at top right.

Notifications doesn't do anything right now. There are no system actions in CB Auto Actions at this time to log notifications. You can certainly add actions to do so by simply prefixing an activity entry asset with "notification.RECIPIENT_USER_ID.". Should have some system actions for logging notifications in next major CB Auto Actions release.

That's quite unfortunate, because the icon resembles the Facebook notifications icon which everyone clicks on when they land on their page. I thought users at least received a message of an email notification from a connect with user request.

This copy is from the Joomlapolis home page:

Kyle has already blogged twice about this new release and its new features. Announcements, emotions, places, actions, tags, comments, likes, mentions, links, article discussions, notifications and many more awesome features will make your Community Builder website come alive. From a technical perspective, CB Activity 4.0 is a masterpiece! It looks awesome on all viewing devices (desktops, tablets and smart-phones) and it auto-streams as soon as new happenings take place. And as CB Activity 4.0 is a total rewrite, it has an improved API that can now be taken advantage of by other add-ons.


Does this mean that the notifications button is still a work in progress?

If the Notifications button doesn't do anything, is it possible to turn it off? I am doing a site for university students and I don't want to get "the notifications button didn't work" in every student review of the website.
