Configuring Personal Notifications

Liferay provides integrated notification tools, so you can ensure users are alerted to platform events. Users can customize which notifications they receive by enabling email, or website notifications for the desired applications. These settings are global in scope and determine the user’s personal notifications for all sites. To customize individual notifications,

Open your Personal Menu and click Notifications.
Click Actions () in the Application Bar and select Configuration.

Alternatively, you can access these settings wherever the Notifications widget is deployed. Click the widget’s Options button () and select Configuration.
Enable or disable notifications for the desired application triggers.
Click Save.
