Notification Preferences
Notification Preferences control which staff members receive which admin alert emails. Instead of every alert going to one shared inbox, each type of alert can be routed to the specific people who handle it.
Used by: Super Admin (Settings). Found at https://admin.uibeta.org/admin/settings/notifications.
How routing works
The page is a grid of every staff member down the side and alert categories across the top, each with an on/off switch. The rule is simple:
- If at least one staff member has a category switched on, that category's emails go to those people.
- If every staff member has a category switched off, those emails fall back to the default admin emails set in Email Config.
So turning a category on for someone narrows delivery to the people who opted in. Leaving a category off for everyone keeps the old behavior of sending to the shared default.
The categories
| Category | What it sends |
|---|---|
| Memberships | New offline membership orders and offline-order expiry alerts. |
| Events | New community event submissions awaiting review. |
| Classes | New class enrollments and the automatic instructor-membership grant alert (fired when a class hits its minimum enrollment). |
| Scholarships | New scholarship applications to review. |
| Daily Digest | The once-a-day summary of pending items. |
| Giving | A notification for every gift — each one-time donation and each recurring-gift charge, as they happen (not a daily rollup). Staff who receive those emails manage gifts in Recurring Donors and Donation Products. |
Classes covers the instructor auto-grant alert
The alert that fires when a class reaches minimum enrollment and teachers get their complimentary membership rides on the Classes category. If nobody has Classes switched on, that alert only reaches the default admin emails. Turn Classes on for whoever should be told when it happens (for example the language school manager). See Instructors.
Changing who gets what
- Go to https://admin.uibeta.org/admin/settings/notifications.
- Find the staff member's row and the category column.
- Toggle the switch. Changes save immediately.
Only staff (Admin, Super Admin, Instructor) appear here — assign someone a staff role first if they are missing. The default admin emails used for fallback are set under Settings → Email Config.
Checking that an alert went out
Every admin alert email and the daily digest is recorded in the Email Log (/admin/email-log). To confirm one was sent, and to whom, filter the log by Template, for example daily_admin_digest for the digest, enrollment_new_admin for new class enrollments, or offline_order_new_admin for new offline orders. See Email Templates.
