Find out if mention notifications are used
Closed, ResolvedPublic5 Story Points
Actions

Description

Task: Soon there will be two new opt-in features for notifications: Receiving a notification whenever you successfully sent mentions and receiving a notification whenever your mentions could not be sent due to errors. We want to find out if they are actually used.

Please

  • Track how often people enable the two options
  • Track how often people disable the option again
  • Show it both in a graph on a grafana board

Background: This task is based on a wish that received 21 points (#9) in the German Community Wishlist[1]. Originally, the wish was to receive an information about the sent messages. To help people use mentions in a way that they are sent, we have also included notifications about mention failures, which add the reasons for the failure as well.

For point 1 we will need a script to check record the number of users with the user preferences enabled.
For point 2 we will need a similar script with a days historic record of who had the mention preferences enabled that can then be cross checked with the state 24 hours later.

This is vaguely similar to the recent beta features tracking.

Just pending a dashboard in the coming days now!

@Addshore would it be possible to have a seperate graph that shows the same for test?

Hmm, in theory it would be possible, however the graph currently on that dashboard shows the global users, ie, if they enable it on multiple sites it is only counted once)
I could remove the test sites from this number? (And I could do the same for the revslider data)?

@Lea_WMDE it would be great to get your opinion on the above comment! :)
Either we keep it as it is or I split out the test sites for these metrics and the revisionslider ones etc.! :)
