How to Update Your SugarClub Profile and Important Settings
Customize your Email and Live Alert Notifications
Your Email & Live Alert Notifications are an important area to set and you control your notifications. Take a few minutes to follow these instructions to set your preferences!
1. Navigate to your profile settings by clicking your profile avatar (in the top-right corner of your screen) and then Settings
2. Click email digests at the top of the screen (you can also customize your email & live alert notifications using these same steps)
You can enable daily or weekly digests for a particular group so you can still track what is happening in the community (learn more about updating your Email Digest preferences here).
3. Select Notifications. On the right-hand side, select each of the check boxes to indicate how you would like to receive emails or notifications (which will appear at the top of your screen in the "
bolt" to the left of your avatar/profile photo) for the activity areas where you are subscribed.
You can also subscribe to live alerts which are small slide-out notifications that alert you to the activity you've requested notifications about. You receive live alerts when you are logged into the Community.
Notification Recommendations: We recommend keeping the following email notifications on at a minimum:
- Someone mentions me
- I'm sent a private message
- Comments are made on content I write
4. When you have selected your desired preferences, click Save at the bottom of the screen.
We hope this helps. You can read more on this topic by scrolling down. If you have any feedback about this help page, feel free to drop us a line!
