One of the first things we encourage you to do is customize your preferences to ensure you receive the content you need at the right frequency for your schedule.

Your Options

Discussion Emails: Select how you want to receive updates about discussion posts from each of the communities to which you belong.

· Real-time alerts if you want to receive immediate notification when activity occurs in a community.

· Daily Digest is one email, once a day, showing activity in a community.

· No email if you prefer to receive a daily or weekly summary of activity across your communities. To do so, consider a Consolidated Digest.

You can receive a consolidated summary of activities of some or all your communities on a Daily or Weekly basis.

Pro Tip: You can configure these settings independently for each community according to your individual preferences.
