Sending Email Notifications

To send email notifications start creating news or site alert content or find existing news or site alert you would like to send a notification from.

While on the content edit page, find the notification section that is located on the right-hand side of the page called Notification System:

 

Expand the Notification System section and select notification or notifications you would like to send. The options are Send Email and Send Text Message.

 

For this example, we select Send Email to send an email notification:

 

Once the Send Email is selected, additional options are displayed:

• Email Topic – The drop-down field selection is required. Choose the topic you would like to send the notification for. Subscribers that are subscribed to this topic will receive email notification.
• Subject – The field is required. Enter the subject of the email notification. The subject will be displayed in the email subject line of the notification.
• Body – The field is automatically populated from the news or the site alert body field when it’s filled out. The notification Body field can be manually added or updated as well.
