Dashboard Alerts for Admin UI

About

This plugin allows Payload CMS users to create and manage dashboard system alerts directly from the admin panel. Users can author alerts, specify target audiences, and enable per-user dismissals. The plugin includes an 'admin-alerts' collection for storing messages, which can be of various types such as info, success, warning, or error. Users can also set alerts as active or inactive without deleting them, ensuring ongoing control over displayed notifications. The dashboard panel fetches and displays alerts, enhancing the admin UI experience. Key features include user-targeted notifications, a private dismissal mechanism, and a customizable configuration. The plugin requires integration with Payload CMS and is designed to be easily added to the existing configuration with minimal setup. Access control is enforced, allowing only authorized users to modify or delete alerts, while all authenticated users can view them. The integration also supports creating alerts from collection hooks whenever specific actions occur within the Payload CMS, thus notifying relevant users effectively.
