🔖 Feature description

This may tie under #21, but it would be great to create alerts using 'Monitor Variables'.

If I have some non-critical systems, I don't want to create an alert for every single one saying: 'website x is down' - Instead It would be awesome if I could create an 'all-encompassing' alert message with something like:

{monitor_nickname} is unavailable on {monitor_group}. Check on it at {monitor_url}

✔️ Solution

This would allow you to create generic alerts for groups of systems instead of individual alerts for single monitors. I could build a 'Mission Critical' alert with a different message sent to a text instead of an email, so I get it ASAP, and it would have all the relevant information for context when I receive the alert.

❓ Alternatives

@HStep20
I think this is a duplicate of https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/issues/975
If you agree, could you please close this Issue, as duplicates only create immortal zombies and are really hard to issue-manage?
If not, what makes this issue unique enough to require an additional issue? (Could this be integrated into the issue linked above?) ^^
