Push notifications are disabled for all users by default

Hi, I have created a Notification to inform users about Outages, this is working fine.

The only problem I am experiencing is that push notifications are only sent if users enable it manually on their Settings > Notifications options.
I need to make this enabled by default but can't find where I can set this.

If there's an option similar to Mandatory for email notifications, which can't be turned off, it'd be great.find_real_file.png

This is most probably controlled through user preference. Just set the preference for a user manually and verify what record got inserted in the user preference table. Write a fix script and insert the same record in preference table for all the users.

What about for new users? I believe it'll be disabled by default...

Add a business rule for that. Fix script is for one time fix.
