Ways to change notifications intervals? - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Hi, I am finding ways to change notification intervals for WhatsApp or LINE notifications because it is so annoying when its notifications comes repeatedly.
I know there is Xposed plugin, but Tasker itself seems to have lots of ways to control system and notifications variables, so there can be a way.
Is there anyone has an idea to make this come true? Thank you.

Is there a way to turn off alerts/alarms coming from the S planner?

Is there a way to turn off alerts/alarms coming from the S planner?
I'm planning on using Calengoo.
Won't the alerts double? One coming from S-planner and the other coming from Calengoo?
I cannot turn of the calendars in S planner as Calengoo seems to need it to be able to get calendar data from my google account (I don't want to give Calengoo my login details, thus it is syncing from my Android device which is syncing to my Google Account)
Thanks for what enlightenment you guys can give.
I, too, would love some advice on this issue. Just using Outlook and the S Calendar. What I would like to do is to turn off the spoken notifications but still receive an event notification in the notification bar. And I still want the phone to ring.
What about "Set alarms and notifications" option in s planner options accessible after pressing menu key? I can set "Alarm", "Notification", "Disabled". There is another menu entry for vibration...
Thanks. But the problem with choosing to disable it is that I no longer receive any notification. I would like a notice in the notification bar - I just don't want my notification bar speaking. I tried changing the notification sound volume to zero. That worked to silence notifications about texts (but I still get the vibrate). But my calender still speaks.
Well, I found a fix for my problem, but it won't help the OP. Turns out the phone was in driving mode and that overrode application settings.

Possible to use Tasker with Active Display?

I posted this in the Themes and Apps subforum a week ago and got no responses. I was wondering if anyone proficient at Tasker knows how to modify Active Display/Notifications.
For instance, is it possible to use Tasker to dictate what notifications will show up on Active Display depending on the time of day? So, when I'm at work, I'd like to disable (i.e., uncheck) all corporate email notifications (but only as they appear in Active Display) since I get those notifications on my PC anyway. If not, maybe I need to just disable corporate email notifications globally during that period of time, which would be a less desirable solution.
I could be wrong, but I think Tasker can only do something like that if the app is setup as a plugin to work with Tasker.
There very well may be an easier/better way to do it, but if you're rooted you can run shell commands to simulate touch input on the device. You could have a task to open the Active Notifications settings, and simulate the input of tapping the checkboxes you wanted to enable/disable, and run different tasks to set/remove them based on time/location/etc.
Like I said, there may be an easier way that I am not aware of, but that comes to mind.

thats actually a genius idea...unsure if we can change the active notification setting, but maybe use tasker to clear the notification from the status bar then maybe bring it back (or a tasker notification with smiliar messaging) about the skipped notification on unlock.

Well it could definitely toggle the setting. I've used it to run some actions within apps before (apps that I wanted to "manually" sync on a specific schedule. You define the shell commands as:
Code:
input tap X Y
or
input swipe X1 Y1 X2 Y2
So you'd launch "settings", find the coordinates of the Active Display button, set it to tap there, find and set the coords for "manage notification types", and the associated apps. This could be tough if you add/remove apps a lot, because the coordinates would change if a new app falls in the list ahead of one you have setup to use this method, but it would work.
You could also fire a notification from Tasker when the task is executed to tell you that the selected apps are behind hidden.
This is exactly what I wanted. How and where can I input this shell command? And how can I find the coordinates?

Full Screen Event Notifications

Can anyone tell me what I have to disable to get rid of the annoying full screen event notifications? I am referring to the ones that allow you to dismiss or snooze an alert. I have tried disabling calendar notifications and tasks, but I still get them. Any help would be appreciated.

Led notification Problem Mi 8

Hi guys, i have a notification problem with mi 8..the LED works on 70% of the notifications but 30% does not let me see, I noticed that there is a connection between many notifications and few, when I receive maximum 2/3 most of the time the LED lights up, while I get more than 3 starts not to light up anymore ... it's not always like that, but for many times yes. Obviously I also tried the wipe cache and dalvik, but nothing...same issue with 10.0.6 and last 8.10.25 (xiaomi.eu). On application settings and led notification setting is all "ON", no power saving in these apps. Anyone can help me?
Update:
After several tests I found that the same problem is repeated for the vibration when notifications are received, sometimes it vibrates sometimes not.

I think you are having your first encounter with MIUI's default features. Go to Settings > Installed apps, select the app or apps for which you want to "fix" the notifications for and tap Notifications. From here, select the feature or features you want to receive notification for and how to receive them (Notification light, vibration, etc). When I say features for this, well every app has it's own set of different components to notify you of. For example, Facebook has several options to choose, lets say you only want vibrations and LED for comments and friend requests, you can set those to only provide the notification light or vibrations when you receive them. Gmail on the other hand has few options relating to the types of notifications you receive (since obviously it's only related to email and there are no comments or friend requests on it). Each app has it's own set and you can control what or how you get notifications. If you are still seeing that you are not getting notifications on time or so on, then the default power saving feature may also need adjusting. Go to Settings > Battery & performance > Choose apps and select the app or apps you want to "fix" the notifications for and select the option called "No restrictions". The default setting is useful for saving power, but this also stops certain apps from displaying notifications as soon as you get them (there is a delay which I still don't know if it is random or if it is every hour, few hours or so). Not all apps abuse your battery, but of course some do, such as Facebook which can be annoying if you receive lots of comments, uodates, etc.

es, the problem is that I have already set all this that you tell me, but many times loses the LED notifications / vibration too often. Could you make me a screen of the notifications app installed section of ex. whatsapp (which I always use) so I copy preferences? maybe there are conflicts, if you activate one thing the other does not work well etc. otherwise I do not know what to think ..

Disable brief notification pop up

The brief notification is where you get a small pop up at the top of your screen. How the hell do you disable this globally? Some apps like WhatsApp you can do from within the actual app's settings. Others you can turn off priority notifications.. But some apps don't have any valid setting. How can I disable this for all apps. Its such a useless feature for me. I just want the regular icon in the status bar and nothing popping up
they used to be called heads up notifications I think and yes I'd welcome a solution for this too.
I currently run my phone in 'do not disturb' mode 24/7 because I despise their intrusions.
