Web notification compliance plugins

Compliance plugins evaluate the attributes of a particular user and determine whether that user is compliant with the notification rule or not. Compliance plugins for web notifications also determine the text of the message to be delivered, and the link that is available on the User notifications (PSN) module page. Configure built-in plugins for web notifications by clicking the configure icon 3332.png next to the plugin field.

Built-in plugins available for the Plugin to run to determine compliance require the following parameters:
