Notification Settings help, please

I have tried to set my notifications so that I only receive one email a day. However, my inbox is still bombarded with notifications + the BariatricPal digest (sometimes 40 or more emails a day.) Here are my settings. Have I done something wrong? Thanks for your help.

  • I'm not sure but you might have to do this on each thread that you decide to follow. I have some where I get instant notifications and others where I get a daily digest

    I sure hope not, that would be a pain!

  • Hi @Orchids&Dragons! It looks like you have several topics that you follow in which you chose to receive notifications immediately. The settings you showed us are for content that you follow

Hi @Orchids&Dragons! It looks like you have several topics that you follow in which you chose to receive notifications immediately.

The settings you showed us are for content that you follow automatically, in other words, topics that you reply to and topics that you create yourself.

When you press on the "Follow" button on a topic, however, it prompts you to choose how you'd like to receive notifications (see the screenshot below). You can change those settings, but you would have to do it for each topic that you're getting instant notifications for.
