Best practices for Notifications

Learn tips on how to decrease the number of email notifications you, your clients, and other collaborators receive

Updated over a week ago

With the defaulted Notification Settings, you and your collaborators will receive notifications from Loomly when you are assigned to a post, when the post status is updated (if you are assigned to the post), or when comments are left on a post.

Feel free to take a look at the following actions to receive fewer notifications:

1. Update your Notification Settings

You or your collaborators will need to log in to your Loomly account and update your notifications settings in the Notifications tab of your Account Settings for each calendar you can access.

The notifications can be turned off for specific activities, or the email frequency can be updated to receive daily and weekly digests.

2. Notify Collaborators for the whole month at once

If you or your collaborators would like to receive fewer email notifications or would like to review multiple posts at one time, you can skip assigning the posts, so they do not receive any notifications to review each post.

Instead, once several posts are ready to be reviewed, use the "Notify Collaborators" button (on the calendar's toolbar), if you want your collaborators to approve several posts at a time.

3. Mark comments as private

You can mark comments as Private, which will prevent Loomly from sending email notifications to your collaborators assigned to the "Client" role since they cannot view Private comments. We recommend marking posts as Private if you want to leave a comment for your team without alerting your clients.

💡 Tip: There is no need to mark comments as Private for draft posts (unless you would like to make a comment invisible to them once it's ready for their review) since clients do not have access to draft posts nor receive notifications for draft posts.

4. Bulk assign your collaborators

If your collaborator has updated the email frequency for "Something has been assigned to you" to weekly or daily digests, then you can also assign them to several posts once they are ready for your collaborator to review by bulk assigning posts in List View:

⚠️ Note: Bulk assigning posts will send one separate email notification per post if your client has not updated their Notification Settings to daily or weekly digest, so we recommend using this method after having your collaborators update their Notification settings.
