Understanding your community notifications

What notifications do Community Members receive?

Utilize your community notifications to stay informed about your community communications.

Community notifications are sent out in three ways:

  • Emails
  • In-app notifications (in your notification center)
  • Mobile notifications (push notifications) 

Notifications are controlled two ways:

  • On an individual basis, in an individual’s profile settings
  • By you, the Hero, at the community level in community settings

As an admin for your Community, you will see the following notification settings:

When a new member joins your community, all of their notifications will be enabled. After they join, they can customize their preferences in their profile settings. 

For the following charts, you, your moderators, administrators, and community members will be able to customize and receive the indicated Community notifications.

To adjust your notifications using the Community web app:

  • Go into your Community and locate your profile icon at the top right of the page.
  • Click the dropdown arrow next to your profile icon to open the options menu.
  • Under "My Account" select Settings.

For your Circle push notifications, you can also change how often and what type of push notifications you see for each Circle by clicking to open the dropdown menu under the Circle name:

  • All messages - Get notified every day about all messages in your Circle, including announcements, mentions, meetups, and polls.
  • Highlights only - Receive a notification summary every 2 days.
  • Muted - Opt out of all notifications for a specific Circle:

Note:
If you’ve disabled any of the email notification settings at the Community level, your members will see those notification settings grayed out in “My Account Settings” and won’t be able to activate them. Learn more about how to customize Community email notifications for all members.
