# Notification Manager (local_notification_manager)

## Tab Structure and Features

The plugin's management interface is divided into 3 main tabs, corresponding to its core functionalities:

### 1. Dashboard

The dashboard provides visual reports and statistics on the overall notification activity within the system.

- **Time Range Filter:** Administrators can filter statistical data by specific time periods such as the Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, Last 90 Days, or All Time.

- **Key Metrics:** Displays Total Notifications, Read notifications, Unread notifications, Unread Rate, and Engagement level.

- **Analytics:** Provides insights into Top Users (users receiving the most notifications) and Popular Types (the most common notification components).

### 2. Manage Notifications

This tab allows administrators to look up and manage notifications for specific users.

- **User Search:** Search for and select any user in the system to view their incoming notifications.

- **Status Filter:** Filter the notification list by status: All, Read, or Unread.

- **Notification Details:** Displays the Subject, Message, sending Component, Time Created, and Time Read.

- **Move to Trash:** Allows bulk selecting (Select All) to delete notifications. Selected notifications are moved to the Trash tab instead of being permanently deleted immediately.

### 3. Trash

A temporary storage area for notifications deleted from the Manage tab before they are permanently removed from the database.

- **View Deleted Notifications:** Search for users and view their deleted notifications, including the Time Deleted.

- **Restore Selected:** Select one or more notifications to restore them to their normal state (moving them back to the Manage list).

- **Delete Permanently:** Completely remove selected notifications from the system. This action cannot be undone.

- **Automated Cleanup:** The plugin includes a Scheduled Task (`cleanup_trash_task`) to automatically clean up and permanently delete old, lingering notifications in the trash.
