Setting Up Admin Email Alerts

Updated 5/4/2026

The Notifications tab within Settings (the second tab on the Settings page) lets you configure email alerts that are sent to administrators whenever a business or review is submitted or updated.

Getting to Notification Settings

  1. Navigate to Administer Site > Recommendations > Settings.
  2. Click the Notifications tab.

Business Email Alert

Controls whether administrators receive an email whenever a resident adds or updates a business listing.

  • Set to On to enable alerts for business submissions and updates.
  • Set to Off to disable them.

Review Email Alert

Controls whether administrators receive an email whenever a resident submits or updates a review.

  • Set to On to enable alerts for review submissions and updates.
  • Set to Off to disable them.

Email Address Settings

If either alert is turned On, an additional section of fields will appear:

  • Email — The primary recipient address for alerts. Required when alerts are enabled. You can enter multiple addresses separated by commas.
  • BCC Email — An optional address to receive a blind copy of each alert.
  • Subject: New Business — The email subject line used when a new business is submitted.
  • Subject: Updated Business — The email subject line used when an existing business is updated.
  • Subject: New Review — The email subject line used when a new review is submitted.
  • Subject: Updated Review — The email subject line used when an existing review is updated.

Tip: Customize the subject lines to include your community name so alerts are easy to identify in your inbox — for example, "Maple Grove — New Business Submitted."

Saving Notification Settings

After making changes, click Save at the bottom of the form.
