Subscribing to Alerts

As a member of a community you can choose to be notified when files, discussion items, messages etc are posted.

The Community Owners who post the message have the choice of notifying all members or all subscribers. If you have chosen to be notified, you are a subscriber.

You may be a subscriber in one community and a member in another.

You can check your settings for a given community. Look at the graphic below.

This view is that of a member who is not an owner (Owners see a slightly different view)

  1. Click on the relevent community, and near the top right of the information pane, you will see the option to "Edit Membership", click here [If you are an owner it will say Edit Community]
  2. This will open another window. Click on the tab marked "Notify Preferences". Look at the checkboxes, if any of these are checked, then you are choosing to be notified every time that component of the community is changed.
