      We just cover this feature for new installs only

      — Original —

      For new installs all notifications both web and email providers should default to on.

      Currently in LMS there are several notifications that are defaulted to off.  We should have all notifications on for the web and email delivery methods. Users can then choose to reduce the number if needed.

      When the PX team carried out user research around notifications, there were instances where users wanted notifications of certain events in Moodle.  However, they didn't know that these already existed in Moodle but were defaulted to off.

      For new sites vs upgraded sites:
      For newly installed sites then this should apply and all notifications should be on.
      For sites that are upgrading. If we can determine that a user hasn't changed their notification settings from the default, then we should enable all notifications. If a user has modified the defaults then we should leave them as they are.  If we can't determine if a user has changed the defaults or not, then we should leave them as they are and just apply the change to new sites. Also if admins have made changes then we should keep those. So we'll need to investigate if we can tell if there has been changes or not from the defaults.
