Installable with the Extension Manager

Description

Since XWiki 9.8, the Notifications Application is replacing the old Watchlist Application. In order to not lose all the preferences of the Watchlist, this module provides a bridge that make them appear as preferences of the Notification Application. 

This extension requires no configuration and works out of the box.

Example

Your Watchlist settings on a particular page:

AlertMenu.png

Are displayed in the Notifications menu area:

AlertMenuAfter.png

Your settings for the Watchlist:

WatchlistSettings.png

Are displayed in the Notifications settings like this:

Note that you cannot disable a filter that comes from the old Watchlist application. You can only delete it.
