I have a number of notifications in my app. I'd like to add a Category or Tag property to the NotificationDefinition so that I can organize them in the user notification settings UI.... something like this (where I have Category 1 and Category 2)...
Is there any way to do this with the current Abp Notifications? (And if not, can this be considered as a feature for a new version?) Thank you.

Hi,
You can store custom data in Notification Data, see https://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Notification-System#notification-data
Here is a sample usage;

We do store custom data in the notification itself, but what I'm really looking for is a simple way to apply a hierarchy or grouping to the notification list in the settings (which doesn't even need to affect the notifications themselves). (see screenshot)

Hi,
In that case, you can try https://docs.aspnetzero.com/en/aspnet-core-mvc/latest/Extending-Existing-Entities to add a new field to Notifications.

I don't want to add a new field to the Notifications - all I really want to do is add a field or property to the NotificationDefinitions, so that they can be displayed in the notifications settings UI (see my first screenshot). This won't affect the actual Notifications at all.
I tried to extend the existing NotificationDefinitions, but it looks like that class is in the ABP core and can't be touched without access to that source code.?.
I am only trying to organize the UI so that we have several categories.... is there some other possible way to do this?

Hi,
Thanks, got it. What about setting it like this;
notificationDefinition["Category"] = <any serializable object>
