Email Notifications - Vanilla Success
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p>It is always recommended to review your email notifications prior to launch.</p><p>If you are also doing a migration, email notifications can be temporarily turned off in order to prevent email messages inadvertently going out to members and directing them to the new forum.</p><p>Test your email notifications <em>using your staging site</em>. If you have not yet received access to your staging site, contact your CSM.</p><h4 data-id="a-note-on-subcommunities">A note on subcommunities</h4><p>If your forum uses subcommunities, the branding (logo, colours) will remain the same for all subcommunities. The exception is if your subcommunities are separated by language, in which case the notification will be sent in the language that incurs the action.</p><p><strong>EXAMPLE</strong>: Valérie is in the French subcommunity of my site, with her language set to French. If she comments on my English-language post, writes on my wall, and @mentions me, I will receive the notifications <em>in French</em> (assuming that I receive notifications for these actions).</p><h2 data-id="html-based-email-notifications">HTML-based Email Notifications</h2><p><strong>Higher Logic Vanilla</strong> (<strong>Vanilla</strong>) gives you the option to send HTML-based email notifications that <em>present a more appealing and professional image</em>. Essentially, these messages are "branded" exclusively for your community -- with your community's logo and colors!</p><p>📝 <strong>NOTE</strong>: Email notifications can also be sent as <em>plain text</em>.</p><h2 data-id="enable-configure-html-emails">Enable & Configure HTML Emails</h2><p>You can easily enable HTML-based emails, and then configure a few options to set how they will appear.</p><p>To enable and configure HTML-based emails:</p><p>1.
