Easy steps to control your notification settings

The dropdown menu contains links to all the important controls for your LJWorld.com account, including the new Inbox features.

With the new blog technology we introduced last week, you now have the ability to get notifications whenever anyone comments on your blog entries.

This can be both helpful and insanely annoying, so I’m sure you want to know how to control this setting.

It’s easy, with the advent of the LJWorld.com Inbox. In addition to controlling your notification settings, you can also control whether private messages from other users go to your e-mail, or just stay in your LJWorld.com Inbox. You can also receive notices when a user “follows” you. At the moment, we don’t have following enabled on LJWorld.com, but intend to in the future.

Following allows a user to easily find the comments or blog posts another user has made, without searching the site for them.

So, to control your notifications, first go up to the dropdown menu next to your username:

The LJWorld.com Inbox lets you choose how you want to receive each of the different notifications the site sends. It also gives you one place to look at old messages or notifications you've received.

Then, click on Inbox & settings. That takes you to a page that looks like this:

Check the appropriate check boxes and you’re all set. As usual, let me know if you have questions.
