To ensure you are able to easily manage your Curator instance without having to check-in all the time, you can subscribe to emails that generate from Curator’s notification system. These emails will scan Curator’s running list of issues, suggestions and to-do items that will ensure you have more visibility into your Curator instance making management easier and increasing stability. NOTE: Email configuration on Curator is required to use this email notification system. If you have not configured email on your Curator instance, please get in touch with your email administrator and use these instructions to set up email.

Enabling Email Notifications

  1. Login to the backend of your Curator instance (e.g. https://www.curatorexample.com/backend ).
  2. Navigate to the Settings > Curator > Portal Settings section from the left-hand menu.
  3. Click on the “Notifications” tab at the top of the page.
  4. Toggle ON the switch labelled “Send Curator Digests”
  5. This will display scheduling options. Choose your weekly/daily/monthly scheduling options, and whiter or not you’d like immediate notifications for new alerts.
  6. Click the “Save” button.

Subscribing to and Un-Subscribing from Email Notifications

There are two ways to manage who receives the admin digest. Subscribing a backend user is always done from their profile (the first method below); un-subscribing can be done either from the user’s profile or directly from the recipients list on the Notifications tab.

From the Backend Administrator’s profile

  1. Login to the backend of your Curator instance (e.g. https://www.curatorexample.com/backend ).
  2. Navigate to the Settings > Curator > Backend Administrators section from the left-hand menu.
  3. Click on the User whose settings you would like to change.
  4. Check or un-check the “Subscribe to admin digest” checkbox.
  5. Click the “Save” button. Subscribe Image

From the recipients list on the Notifications tab

  1. Login to the backend of your Curator instance (e.g. https://www.curatorexample.com/backend ).
  2. Navigate to the Settings > Curator > Portal Settings section from the left-hand menu.
  3. Click on the “Notifications” tab at the top of the page.
  4. Under Backend Admin Recipients you will see one row for each backend user currently subscribed to the admin digest. Click the X on a row to un-subscribe that user, then click the “Save” button.
NOTE: This list mirrors the “Subscribe to admin digest” setting on each backend user, so removing a row un-checks that user’s checkbox. Adding a recipient is only done from the Backend Administrator’s profile (the first method above). At least one administrator must remain subscribed — if you try to remove the last subscribed admin, the save is rejected with a validation error, so subscribe another admin first.

Recipients without a backend account

Digests can also go to people who do not have a backend account. Add their address to the “Additional Non-Curator-Admin Emails” field on the “Notifications” tab of Settings > Curator > Portal Settings. Click the “Save” button when you are done.
