Mailboxer is sending email notifications when the user has received a new message inside their inbox. This is great, however some users may not want to receive emails. How can I present a checkbox option in the view for the user that will disable the "new message" email notifications?
mailboxer.rb:
Mailboxer.setup do |config|
#Configures if you applications uses or no the email sending for Notifications and Messages
config.uses_emails = true
#Configures the default from for the email sent for Messages and Notifications of Mailboxer
config.default_from = "[email protected]"
#Configures the methods needed by mailboxer
config.email_method = :mailboxer_email
config.name_method = :name
#Configures if you use or not a search engine and wich one are you using
#Supported enignes: [:solr,:sphinx]
config.search_enabled = false
config.search_engine = :solr
end
You could give the user a choice by doing:
def mailboxer_email(object)
self.email if self.preferences.receive_direct_message_by_email?
end
or
def mailboxer_email(object)
if self.no_email
else
nil
end
end
You have to create a no_email
attribute if going with second method.
