Additional notes
[edit ]- The
clearhasmsg
action will remove the HasMsg flag, which causes theYou have new messages
banner to appear and returns true in HasMsg query. It can be used by applications that retrieve the talk page using the API, which unlike opening your talk page in a browser, doesn't automatically remove this flag. - When you trigger this action, the banner
You have new messages
will not appear until you receive any more messages from other users. - This module must be POSTed since 1.29.0-wmf.5.[1]
