Notification Settings

Hi

 

If we change default value of Notification settings in Admin panel is it will directly change user settings for all?

 

Eg: If we change Kudo settings use default to weekly instead of Immediately in Admin panel is same settingsautomatically changes to all the user personal settings.

    Yes, if a user has the "Use default" setting selected, when you change the default for the community, the behavior will change for them. Users that have selected a setting other than "Use default" are not affected.

    Thanks for your clarification, but i need more details on it

     

    E.x:

     

    As a Admin  if we changed default value of Kudos "Immediately" to "In a weekly Digest"  is it change every user setings with New change or user should chnage it manually

    Default always means exactly that: default. So if I have the default setting, whatever the admin sets for default will affect me whenever it's changed.

     

    For example:

    Here is my personal setting on this community:

    Right now the default is "In a Daily digest". If the community admin changes the default to "Immediately" then I will receive the "Immediately" setting automatically (and the new checkbox will be next to "Use default (Immediately)".

  • AbhishekIlindraYes it will reflect to all users except you have set the permission to the seperately by setting user permission. Same apply for the kudos.
