To turn on/off forum notifications
Navigate to the particular forum you're interested in. On the right hand side of the page, click turn forum notifications on/off. If you turn notifications on but choose not to set up a daily digest (see below), you will receive a notification for every new post and every new comment.
A note about group forums! If the forum is in a group (i.e., the Partner Group), when you join that group you are automatically subscribed to group forums without a daily digest. To reduce the frequency of your notifications, set up a daily digest by following the instructions below.
To set up a daily or weekly digest
First, navigate to the particular forum you're interested in and make sure your notifications are turned on (see above). Then, on the right hand side of the page, click email digest options. Choose daily or weekly and then click save.
Another option to for managing email digests: go to your settings by clicking on your icon/avatar and then settings. On the Email Digests tab, find all digests. You can choose daily, weekly, or unsubscribe from there.
To set how you get notifications
You can choose to get community notifications as emails, live alerts, or both. Head to your settings by clicking on your icon/avatar and then settings. On the Notifications tab, you can set how you receive notifications for every action.
