[Idea][PAID] Activity Log emails #32

I love this package, it does the job very well right now, but it's got one big problem - ME. The things are logged, I should take a look at them weekly but I DON'T.

It would help me a lot to be able to configure when an email that looks like this (I find it most useful by Subject type):

Hi there,

Between X DATE an Y DATE, here's what's happened in your app:

  • [Products](): [5 added](), [3 edited](), [2 deleted]();
  • [Rewards](): [5 added](), [3 edited](), [2 deleted]();
  • etc.

Alternatively, [see all activity between X DATE and Y DATE]().

I can click on the individual links to go to the List operation filtered specifically for that. Or the bottom link to see all activity. I think this would cover our use case... and many other use cases.

Would it be difficult to create this? I don't think so. I think it's a quick but efficient thing. But this would be SO HELPFUL to me, that I'm considering we make this a separate package (even PAID). Of course it could also be a FREE package that does NOT depend on backpack/activity-log, but adds those links if it is installed 😔 We could do that too.

What do you think about this @pxpm and @promatik ?

Cheers!

I love the idea 👌 I think it should either be; 1) Free and embedded in the current package. 2) Paid in a separate package.

So, I just don't like it to be a separate free package 😅

For me, any of those are ok 👌 And I think it would be really easy to do it.

Somethings could go wrong, we would rely a lot on these two;

But 1) that's not our job to teach on how to configure it. 2) there are ways to test both and to warn developers if something is not properly working.
