David Sanner - zones & notifications: what are ...

zones & notifications: what are people typically using to define & view zones? signalk-simple-notifications or signalk-zones, or something else?
I've been using signalk-zones but w/ that I have to make sure I uncheck the default 'Active' box otherwise I get 2 notification sources, one from zones-edit.XX and one from self.notificationhandler.
This breaks KIP when acknowledging/silencing a notification (KIP says: there are multiple sources for the given path, but no source was specified in the request). How about viewing defined zones... zones-edit? Thx.

Data Browser. Meta Data ON to view/edit zones.

Agreed, I think simple-notifications and zones plguins can be depricated Now that the server can do it

@Karl-Erik Gustafsson Thanks... I was poking around there yesterday (though missed the pencil/edit) icon. @Scott Bender Thanks as well, now I see the best way to do zones/notifications. fyi, if it's not obvious for all, to migrate your config from the zones plugin to server/baseDeltas.json use the Data Browser and for each path with zone metadata (but not the notification paths generated by zones plugin) click edit and then save (pencil then disk icon). This transfers and saves the config from the zones plugin to baseDeltas.json which then allows the zones plugin to be disabled.
