The platform is not very old, so I am expecting to see a lot of changes coming on a regular basis. I can't wait to see the site after it gets themed too. Right now, as I understand it, they are running on a generic theme while waiting for the graphic designers to put things together.

Joy

I am excited for additional changes...

Other than the official MangoLassi theming, I think that the biggest thing that people are waiting on is email notifications. I've not heard any rumours of a roadmap for that yet, though.

Joy

yes that is one thing .. I wondering before why I haven't received any notification form MangoLassi..

Yes, no functionality for that yet. I've been asking. That is some much needed functionality.

Desktop notifications are working! Nice addition, the only other app I have seen do that has been gmail.

this just proves the mango is second only to google.

scottalanmiller

The notifications option is pretty cool indeed!

Nic

how do I turn off the desktop notifications? I get so many of them cause I follow a lot of people, so it just ends up like whack-a-mole

It is a setting in the browser. What browser are you using?

Nic

@scottalanmiller Thanks, that pointed me in the right direction. A quick search showed me Settings->Advanced->Privacy->Content Settings->Notifications->Manage Exceptions

Great
