Summary

 

Introduction:

The video, sponsored by mysites.guru, covers Joomla 5 update notifications.

Tim Davis shares Joomla maintenance tips.

Learning from a Glitch:

A Cloudflare caching issue revealed insights about Joomla 5 version updates.

Update Notification Plugin:

In Joomla 3 and 4, update notifications were managed by a plugin.

The same plugin exists in Joomla 5.

Finding the Plugin:

Navigate to System -> Plugins and filter for "update".

Locate the Task - Joomla Update Notification plugin.

Reasons to Disable Notifications:

You might disable notifications if someone else manages updates, you use a service like mysites.guru, or are active in the Joomla community.

Joomla 5 Scheduled Tasks:

Joomla 5 uses a scheduled task to trigger the update notification plugin.

This task runs every 24 hours by default.

Disabling the Scheduled Task:

Go to System -> Scheduled Tasks and disable the task to stop email notifications.

Disabling the Plugin:

You can also disable the plugin directly via System -> Plugins.

Ensures the task won't run if the plugin is disabled.

Customizing Notifications:

The update notification task allows customization, including recipient, priority, frequency, and manual triggers.

Conclusion and Bug Notice:

Minor bug where the task seems to complete even if the plugin is disabled.
