Comments on Your Solutions
When enabled, you will receive an email whenever someone leaves a comment on one of your submitted solutions. This is useful for getting feedback and engaging with the community.
Replies to Your Comments
When enabled, you will receive an email when someone replies to a comment you have made. This helps you stay engaged in conversations you have started.
Mentions in Comments
When enabled, you will receive an email when another member mentions your username in a comment. This ensures you do not miss when someone is trying to get your attention or reference your work.
Achievement and Badge Notifications
When enabled, you will receive an email when you earn a new achievement or badge. This helps you celebrate your progress and milestones on the platform.
Choosing What Notifications to Receive
To customize your notifications:
- Navigate to the Notifications settings page
- Review each notification type
- Toggle the switch on for notifications you want to receive
- Toggle the switch off for notifications you do not want
- Your preferences are saved automatically when you toggle a switch
Managing Notification Volume
If you find yourself receiving too many emails, consider the following approach:
- Start with all notifications enabled to understand the types of activity happening on your account
- Gradually disable notification types that are less important to you
- Keep essential notifications on, such as replies to your comments, so you can continue conversations
- Check your Frontend Mentor account directly for activity updates if you prefer fewer emails
You can return to the Notifications settings at any time to adjust your preferences as your needs change.
Finding the right balance of notifications helps you stay connected to the community without feeling overwhelmed.
