There are some automated student related email notifications that can be turned off at a per student level!
What notifications can students manage?
Students can turn off the following notifications from within their account settings:
- Weekly reminder email - Receive a weekly email to remind you to continue progressing through your courses. This only applies if this email is turned on by the Site Owner or Site Admin.
- Discussion replies - Receive an email when someone replies to a discussion post you created.
- Community activity - Receive an email when someone comments in posts that you follow.
How to Turn Off Email Notifications in a Student Account
- Login to your student account
- Select your name on the top right
- In the dropdown menu, select My Account
- Select Notifications on the left
- To turn off a notification, uncheck the box to the left of the description
- Click Save Changes
Community Notifications
Community notifications can also be turned off directly from any Community a student has access to. Turning off Community notifications is global. If they turn off notifications in one Community, it will apply to all Communities.
- Login to your student account
- Go to My Dashboard
- Select a Community you have access to
- Once you are in the Community, click on your profile on the top right
- In the dropdown menu, select My Account
- Click on Notifications and uncheck Receive an email when someone replies to my discussion
- Click Save
To manage notifications per post, check out Community Guide for Students!
Important Considerations
These particular notifications can only be turned off at a per-student basis by the student, a Site Owner or Site Admin cannot turn them off at a per-student level. They can be turned off site wide, which you can see instructions on here: Automated Email Notifications
If you have any feedback on our current notification options, please send us a quick email to let us know what functionality would be most valuable to you!
