Add possibility to disable calendar notifications in Web interface

[ogasser]

After upgrading to Nextcloud 28 I get a notification in the Nextcloud Web interface for all calendar events with notifications. As I use Thunderbird instead of the Web interface for interacting with the Nextcloud calendars, I find this quite annoying. It would be great if the possibility to disable calendar event notifications could be added to the personal notification settings:

I agree. Also me and other people in the forum (https://help.nextcloud.com/t/ungewollte-benachrichtigung-fur-termine/178137) are very unhappy, that we now get pushed every calender event notification via the nextcloud app (to our android phones). We now see calender event notifications twice (once in the calender app and once via the nextcloud app). This did never happen in the last 10 years with NC27 or older.

Can we please make the user able to calibrate/change this? It started with the Update to NC 28.x

PS: WAF is really getting down right now because of the multiple notifications ;)

This was added intentionally: #39862. You can opt-out of the feature.

@ChristophWurst how exactly can we opt-out of the feature?

[ChristophWurst]

php occ config:app:set dav sendEventRemindersPush --value=no

Thanks, that works! 👍

I still think it would be good to expose this as a per-user setting accessible through the web interface. @jancborchardt thoughts?

[ogasser]

I applied the setting, but I still get calendar notifications in the browser. Any idea why @ChristophWurst ?

[Linkinsoldier]

I hope this can be disables per web settings in the feature. I don't have access to occ and therefore can not disable it ...!

Also: the notifications only come only in less then 10% of my appointments (and then i get many of them), so for me it would not work if i'd wanted to use it the way it is (supposedly) designed.

There is a space missing for the copy-pasters:
php occ config:app:set dav sendEventRemindersPush --value=no

@ChristophWurst
Pleeeeaaaase make this accessible as a per-user setting through the web interface as many of us do not have occ access.
It is annoying.
Thanks

I don't have time to look into this myself but I'm happy to guide anyone who would like to contribute a fix.

I would be very happy if the settings could be made for each individual calendar.
As soon as I have access to other calendars, the notifications will also be sent to me, even though the view is disabled.
