Riccardo Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Hello Everybody, just to be sure, I changed the type of notification for the followed content from "email" to "notification list" then i clicked on "reset members to default preferences" Does it mean that ALL members that have chosen in the past the method "a notification when new content is posted" and "email" as notification will now receive a notification online on my forum when logged in instead of email?

Marc Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 It means that all members notification settings in their account settings section will have their default set to the sites default. It will not amend anything they are already following, but all future items would follow the new default Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to reset all the followed contents by users? 😁 Edited August 2, 2022 by Riccardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Yes, that is correct. There would be no way in which to change preferences on items which are already followed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riccardo Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 It seems to me the opposite of what you are saying, I'm doing some tests on old followed content..and now I receive a notification online, not the email... ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 If its set to email by digest I mean. If its set to immediate notification, then yes they will change as there isnt actually any setting for specific items. There is only a notification setting on account settings. However there is a digest setting for weekly etc. Those would not change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riccardo Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) Yes Marc I'm just talking about immediate notifications: Method to use for content I follow automatically --> A notification when new content is posted --> Notification List If a user has already chosen "One email per day with all new content from that day" or "One email per week with all new content from that week" It's correct they receive email 🙂 Another question please: Is "Follow topic" in this picture "immediate notification" ? ( A notification when new content is posted ) Edited August 2, 2022 by Riccardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Jim M Posted August 2, 2022 Solution Share Posted August 2, 2022 6 minutes ago, Riccardo said: Is "Follow topic" in this picture "immediate notification" ? ( A notification when new content is posted ) This would go by their setting. I just tested this on a topic here. My notification preferences are set to 1 email and when I enable the "Follow topic" button, it goes by my preference: Marc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
