// should receive notifications when public submissions are made.
// Check that you don’t include a user in the users array that is
// also in a group in the group array as they will get duplicates
// and hate you. ;)
//
// To find a user’s id, edit the user you want and check for the id
// in the browser url, e.g. /livewhale/?users_edit?id=##&gid=##
// Note that you can also see their default group id there too, in
// the gid parameter.
//
// Likewise for groups, edit the group and note the url:
// /livewhale/?groups_edit?id=##

// This the handler method; it should receive type and id as parameters.
//
// $type : string, the pluralized name of the datatype, e.g. news, events, blurbs
// $id : integer, the id of the public submission just created
//
// In the handler, we do a redundant check for the type and id, since they
// are required for any action. We then check for the existence of LiveWhale’s
// core messaging utility. It would normally exist if you were logged into
// LiveWhale, but wouldn’t have been loaded for a simple public submission.
// It is added and instantiated if not present. Finally, we send the message
// to the users and groups in the above arrays.
//
// LiveWhale core messaging also has the ability to put a message into a user’s
// alert section on their welcome page, but as LiveWhale already does that for
// admins, I’ve skipped doing that here. Check the documentation section for a
// more in-depth discussion of LiveWhale core messaging functionality.
