------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
------------------------

This module requires a supported version of Drupal and cron to be
running.

------------------------
INSTALLATION
------------------------

1. Extract the notify module directory, including all its
   subdirectories, into directory where you keep contributed modules
   (e.g. sites/all/modules/).

2. Enable the notify module on the Modules list page.  The database
   tables will be created automagically for you at this point.

3. Modify permissions on the Administer >> User management >>
   Permissions page

   To set the notification checkbox default on new user registration
   form, or let new users opt in for notifications during
   registration, you must grant the anonymous user the right to access
   notify.

4. Configure general notification settings.  See the "Usage" section
   below for details.

------------------------
USAGE
------------------------

The administrative interface for general settings is at: Administer >>
Site configuration >> Notification settings

When setting how often notifications are sent, note that e-mail
updates can only happen as frequently as the cron is set to run.
Check your cron settings.

The administrative interface to review and see per-user settings is:
Administer >> >> User management >> Users >> Notifications.

To manage your own notification preferences, click on the
"Notification settings" on your "My account" page.

NOTIFY VIEWS INTEGRATION 6.x MODULE README
------------------------------------------

The Notify Views Integration submodule is small module that simply
tells the Views module about the Notify database so you can create
listings of users by notify subscription status for export or
administration.

There is no configuration page for this submodule. Too see it in
create a view of type "User" and you'll see that under "Fields" and
"Filters" there are additional options under the category "Notify."

A typical use case is to to make a listing of node subscribers with
names and email addresses and then exported that list using the Views
Data Export module (https://drupal.org/project/views_data_export).
