Issue type Minor issue (breaks specific functionality)
Title Potential critical error for admins receiving"Error occurred on website" as private topics
Status Completed

Description A series of rare conditions can come together to create critical errors for admins.

- The "Error occurred on website" (error_occurred) notification type has to be enabled
- The notification type has to be sent to private topic
- An error has to occur that includes a closing Comcode HTML tag, followed by a full page Tempcode dump

This series of conditions can result in a loop and failure.

The hotfix will prevent the dangerous notifications being saved in this way, as well as make Composr break the loop cleanly rather than bail out.
