How to Disable Notifications on Modal Pages in Oracle APEX
In Oracle APEX, managing notifications can be quite tricky, especially when dealing with modal pages. A common issue arises when global notifications display both in the background of standard pages and at the top of modal dialogs, leading to a cluttered and confusing user experience. If you find yourself asking, "Is there a way to disable notifications specifically on modal pages?" — you're in the right place! In this guide, we will explore effective solutions to handle this problem smoothly.
Understanding the Problem
When you have a global notification set up on your Oracle APEX application's page 0, it affects all pages within your application. However, when opening modal pages, users can see duplicate notifications at both the top of the modal and the background page. This redundancy detracts from the user interface and can be quite distracting.
To tackle this, we need a way to conditionally display notifications only on the standard pages and suppress them on modal dialogs.
Step-by-Step Solution
1. Use Server-Side Conditions
A straightforward method to disable notifications on modal pages is by setting server-side conditions. This approach will allow you to specify which pages should not display notifications. Here’s how:
Access the Notification Settings: Navigate to the global notification settings on page 0.
Set the Server-Side Condition: Employ the following Function Body to prevent notifications on specific pages by their IDs.

Explanation: In the code snippet above, replace 26, 42, 73 with the actual IDs of your modal pages. This condition checks if the current page ID is within the specified list and returns false if it is, thus preventing the notification from showing.
2. Check for Modal Page Mode
An advanced method involves checking whether the current page is in modal mode. This way, the notification can be dynamically controlled based on the page type. Here's how to implement this:
Write a Function Body: Use the following SQL to determine if the current page is a modal dialog.

Explanation: This function counts the number of pages that match the application ID, specifically checking for the current page's ID and whether it’s in modal dialog mode. If it is a modal page, the function returns false, thus suppressing the notification.
Conclusion
By implementing these server-side conditions, you can effectively disable notifications on modal pages in Oracle APEX. Whether you choose to specify a list of page IDs or dynamically check the page mode, both methods provide clean and user-friendly solutions to managing notifications.
For any developer or administrator working with Oracle APEX, keeping a tidy user interface is crucial. By following the steps laid out in this post, you can ensure that your application remains organized and easy to use, enhancing the overall user experience.
