If a namespace has the feature Approval activated at the same time, the read confirmation is triggered if a new draft page has been created. This can be changed server-side using LocalSettings.php. If a read confirmation should be triggered after the page has been approved and not when the draft is created, the following setting needs to exist:

                        $GLOBALS['bsgReadConfirmationMechanism'] = "\\BlueSpice\\FlaggedRevsConnector\\ReadConfirmation\\Mechanism\\PageApproved::factory";
