Right now, health check notifications in ATST are very coarse‑grained:
- Per‑user “Notify me” on/off applies to all health checks.
- “Notify me about all problems” vs. “Only major problems” is still a global setting.
- Admins can disable a specific health check entirely, but that removes the check for everyone, not just its notifications.
This means a single noisy check (e.g. Mail Error Queue) can either:
- Push admins to turn off notifications entirely, or
- Push them to disable the check itself, or
- Cause them to ignore health notifications altogether.
What’s needed
As an admin, I want to:
- Keep a health check enabled,
- But opt out of notifications for that specific check only (e.g. Mail Error Queue),
- While still receiving notifications for other important checks.
Proposal
Add per‑health‑check notification controls in ATST, for example:
- A simple “Send notifications: On/Off” toggle on each health check, or
- Per‑check overrides layered on top of the existing “all vs. major problems only” setting.
Why it matters
This preserves the value of all health checks for the site, while letting individual admins reduce noise from specific checks, instead of turning off all notifications or disabling the checks outright.
