Ajax update element with unread_count and max number of notifications to display

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I recently discover this awesome module but I have a few questions:

I saw that the json response with notifications contains: “unread_count”: 1 so I was wondering if it’s possible to update a count in a notification icon on top bar (like facebook globe and it’s count) with that response, or it’s necessary to modify the ajax function updateSuccess() ?

Also I was wondering if it’s possible to set a limit of notifications to display in the box, like the latest 5 notifications, or also it’s necessary to modify the notification_update() function in views.py to add a range in the line:

new_notifications = request.user.notifications.filter(id__gt=last_notification).active().prefetch()

or do that on jQuery scripts?

Thanks for you answers and the great work with this module. I also noticed that if there is no notification and your receipt one while you open the dropdown box(in: notifications/all ) adds the new notification but doesn’t remove the message: No notifications yet.

Yes, this should be fixed
