Forum Email Notification Preferences

This tutorial shows you how to update your email notification preferences for forums you're subscribed to in a course. 

This tutorial shows you how to change from the default setting of receiving an email each time someone posts to a forum to which you are subscribed to a new setting of receiving an email digest (one email per day) of the posts. (If you are receiving digests and wish to receive individual posts, simply follow this tutorial but in Step 3, change your setting to "Default (No digest)".)

Step 1

In the upper right-hand corner of the screen, click on your photo (or your initials if you haven't uploaded a profile photo). 

User profile button
Step 2 Click on Preferences. Preference link in user menu
Step 3 In the leftmost column, click on Forum preferences

Choose Complete posts to get a single daily email that includes all the posts made to this discussion forum.

Choose Subjects only to get a single daily email that includes only the subject lines of any posts made to this discussion forum.

Once you make your choice, it will save automatically, and you can update other forums on this page as well.
