WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.479 --> 00:00:05.957 So how do you get just the emails from my courses where you are being mentioned? 2 00:00:05.957 --> 00:00:13.941 So for example, if I'm responding to something you asked, and I will always mention you so that you're more likely to get the emails. 3 00:00:14.219 --> 00:00:17.598 So this is how you do it because you might be getting too many emails from my courses. 4 00:00:18.377 --> 00:00:24.165 So first of all, click on your self, your little picture. Sometimes it's in the top right here. 5 00:00:24.204 --> 00:00:27.143 Thank you, Mara, for showing us. Oops. If you could zoom 6 00:00:27.883 --> 00:00:30.662 zoom down. Alright. There we go. So click on notifications 7 00:00:31.441 --> 00:00:32.740 after you click on yourself. 8 00:00:33.289 --> 00:00:36.588 On the top writer. Okay. And here, you can scroll down 9 00:00:37.207 --> 00:00:37.707 and 10 00:00:38.327 --> 00:00:38.827 basically 11 00:00:39.286 --> 00:00:41.386 oops. Yeah. And scroll up a little bit here. 12 00:00:42.194 --> 00:00:42.694 And 13 00:00:43.114 --> 00:00:45.213 notice that you can put 14 00:00:45.872 --> 00:00:48.731 quite granular settings. Right? So for example, 15 00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:50.819 it says 16 00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:52.858 blog, new blog posts, 17 00:00:53.238 --> 00:00:53.738 comments, 18 00:00:54.997 --> 00:00:56.396 mute, it basically means no. 19 00:00:56.396 --> 00:01:01.844 Don't don't send me any emails when there are new comments on courses or blog post forms, etcetera. 20 00:01:01.983 --> 00:01:05.781 Yeah. That's probably a good idea because that could be way too many emails. Right? 21 00:01:05.781 --> 00:01:09.349 Unless you have a some savvy way of filtering your emails, etcetera. 22 00:01:10.048 --> 00:01:15.135 And then mentions, the the third the third a third set of bubbles here is really what we wanna do. 23 00:01:15.814 --> 00:01:23.750 When someone mentions you in a enough comment or forum post, it's generally a good idea to put anyone who mentions you can, 24 00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:29.217 can do that. And Mar, let me ask you, when you did you change that already or was that default 25 00:01:29.637 --> 00:01:30.337 for you? 26 00:01:30.676 --> 00:01:36.663 I think I have randomly changed things not knowing this mass page was available and -- Okay. Okay. 27 00:01:36.663 --> 00:01:38.462 -- totally, I need to do some updating. Yeah. 28 00:01:38.462 --> 00:01:47.357 So I think everyone should go to their notifications master page and I would recommend anyone for the mentions because if otherwise, you're not receiving any emails. 29 00:01:47.417 --> 00:01:49.315 Right? And you are 30 00:01:49.874 --> 00:01:54.532 And you could zoom in more now if you want to to I don't even wanna hide the hide certain things. 31 00:01:54.592 --> 00:01:55.652 But if you if 32 00:01:57.500 --> 00:01:58.040 you if you 33 00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:02.437 someone mentions you, says, oh, that was a great idea, Mario. Have you thought about this? 34 00:02:02.437 --> 00:02:05.556 Or what do you think about that? You'll never you'll never know. 35 00:02:05.556 --> 00:02:11.873 Because how how are you gonna go and look at unless you put anyone who mentions you, you'll get an email for. 36 00:02:12.052 --> 00:02:16.431 Now if for some reason you are just super popular in our in our course community, 37 00:02:16.819 --> 00:02:24.596 and you're just getting too many emails of people mentioning you and you don't want to receive those, then put if staff mentions you, that's the middle bubble for mentions. 38 00:02:24.864 --> 00:02:34.640 But again, I recommend that how tomorrow has it set right now, blog mute, comments, staff, if you want to receive it or if not, then put mute. 39 00:02:34.689 --> 00:02:38.028 And then mentions anyone. And then further down, as you can see, 40 00:02:38.448 --> 00:02:40.227 you could set that for each course. 41 00:02:40.726 --> 00:02:41.506 And so 42 00:02:42.566 --> 00:02:45.454 generally speaking, you probably want and mute. 43 00:02:46.274 --> 00:02:51.012 So the right hand bubble for the courses that are quite popular or that are active right now. 44 00:02:51.231 --> 00:02:52.331 A lot of people commenting 45 00:02:52.769 --> 00:02:55.548 probably want to mute because you get so many emails from those courses. 46 00:02:56.168 --> 00:02:56.668 Unfortunately, 47 00:02:57.207 --> 00:02:58.907 you can't set here 48 00:02:59.926 --> 00:03:04.643 the the mentions thing, but I do believe even if you mute a course 49 00:03:05.663 --> 00:03:07.962 comments, you'll still get the at mentions. 50 00:03:09.341 --> 00:03:17.186 And if you if you stop getting the app if you if you start getting if you stop getting any course comments even in your if you're wondering, 51 00:03:17.564 --> 00:03:20.943 I think people are mentioning me, but I'm still not getting those emails. Then, 52 00:03:21.323 --> 00:03:24.181 you know, then you might wanna come back and set it on 53 00:03:25.121 --> 00:03:27.030 anyone or set it on staff. I mean, 54 00:03:27.429 --> 00:03:30.008 And the other trick really is to use 55 00:03:31.427 --> 00:03:35.215 to use email filters. And, Ma'am, you can stop your screen share for now. 56 00:03:35.654 --> 00:03:38.313 But what I do is I well, 57 00:03:38.653 --> 00:03:41.512 because I'm I'm on staff with my own business, 58 00:03:42.571 --> 00:03:43.071 I 59 00:03:43.459 --> 00:03:43.959 basically 60 00:03:44.739 --> 00:03:48.517 receive all emails, all all course comments, everything. I receive everything. 61 00:03:49.057 --> 00:03:52.035 And the way I do it is I basically 62 00:03:52.455 --> 00:03:57.313 create email rules in my email system. And I try to get clever with 63 00:03:57.892 --> 00:04:04.248 if the email says in the subject line someone has mentioned me or whatever, notice the email subject lines. 64 00:04:04.388 --> 00:04:05.327 And you could basically 65 00:04:05.827 --> 00:04:06.327 filter 66 00:04:06.706 --> 00:04:15.881 certain email subject lines that have certain phrases or words into your into a certain folder that you check more often or into your primary inbox where you can filter out everything else. 67 00:04:15.881 --> 00:04:21.129 So learn email rules or email filters for your email them and that will that will really 68 00:04:21.748 --> 00:04:26.006 solve a lot of issues in in terms of getting too many emails as well. So I hope this is helpful. 69 00:04:26.026 --> 00:04:28.445 Thanks again, Maher for sharing your screen with us.
