What are notifications?

This article gives a simple explanation of what a notification in Loopfront is.

You can get notifications in Loopfront when there are any updates to orders and listings that might be relevant for you. Notifications are displayed in the bell-icon in the top right of the Loopfront-platform next to your user-profile.

Settings for notifications

You can chose when you would like to get notifications and how. To adjust your notification settings, click on your profile in the top right corner. Then you will get a drop-down menu where you can click on "My settings" and then go to the "Notifications" tab. Here you can click on the buttions to manage your settings. You can chose what types of notifications you want and if you only want notifications in Loopfront or by email as well.

When the button is green it means that the notification is turned on, if the button is gray it means that the notification is turned off.



You can get notifications for the following updates in Loopfront:

• Account notifications (Notifications for new requests to join your organization)

When you get a notification you will see a red dot next to the bell-icon in the top right corner of Loopfront. You will also be notified by email if you have turned on email-notifications in your settings (see section above for how to manage your notification settings).

By clicking on the notification bell, a slide-in-window will appear to the right and show your notifications.
