8.5 Modifying Notification Settings for Groups

E-mail notifications are a good way to stay informed about activity in the groups that you are interested in.

If you want to further customize the default notification settings that are described in Section 8.1, Understanding the Default Notification Settings, you can modify them to suit your personal preference.

  1. On any page in Vibe, click Settings in the upper right corner of the page.

  2. Click Notices.

  3. In the Group Feeds section, select the group for which you want to control the notification settings.

  4. In the Send a Copy to my Email for section, select the notification options that you want.

    You receive e-mail notifications for each of the options that are selected.

    New Posts to this Group’s Feed: You receive an e-mail notification each time a new post is made to the group’s feed.

    ...and replies: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user replies to a message that is posted to the group’s feed.

    ...for only posts which I have contributed: You receive an e-mail notification for new posts to the group’s feed and any replies to the post only when you have contributed to the post.

    ...from only those I follow: You receive an e-mail notification for new posts to the group’s feed and any replies to the post only when the user who posts is someone you are following.

  5. Repeat Step 3 through Step 4 for each group for which you want to change the notification settings.

  6. Click Save.
