As this extension has evolved over the years, the option confluence_disable_notifications was introduced to help suppress multiple notifications generated from publishing events. At the time of introduction, the feature was not enabled by default since it did result in changing page requests made and there was not an immediate desire to change the default state of things.
Consider the common application of this extension, most users may not expect notifications to be generated for automated publish events. To make things easier for installations, we are changing the default mode of this extension to suppress page notifications. Users who prefer to have notification events generated are now recommended to explicitly configure the option.
