Notifications

For: All roles

Lumieos sends notifications to keep you informed about activity relevant to your account, teams, and events.

How Notifications Work

Notifications are generated automatically by the system when something requires your attention — for example, when a team’s registration status changes, a new bulletin is published, or an action item needs to be completed. There is no separate page in Account Settings for managing notification preferences; the system does not currently offer per-category or per-channel opt-out controls.

Delivery

Notifications are delivered in two ways:

• In-app — A red dot appears on the bell icon in the top navigation bar whenever you have anything unread. It is a dot, not a count, so it tells you that something is new rather than how much. Click the bell to open the panel and see each notification with its title, description and how long ago it arrived.
• Email digest — Pending notifications are batched and sent to your verified primary email address. The system waits a short time after a notification is created before sending the digest, so that several notifications arriving close together are grouped into a single email rather than separate messages.

In the notification panel

• Clicking a notification marks it read and takes you to the page it refers to.
• The check icon marks one read without navigating.
• The X icon deletes the notification permanently.
• Notifications more urgent than normal carry a priority chip — Low, High or Critical. A normal-priority notification shows no chip.

Note: Deleting a notification cannot be undone. If it referred to something you still need to deal with, the matching action item on your dashboard is the durable record — notifications are the nudge, action items are the list.

How the digest is timed

Each new notification pushes the digest out by a few more minutes, so a burst of related activity arrives as one email rather than several. That delay is capped, so a digest is never held back more than about an hour and a half.

Note: There is no way to turn the digest off, change how often it arrives, or choose which categories it covers. The only controls you have are marking notifications read and deleting them.

What Triggers a Notification

Notifications come from several parts of the platform, including team and event activity, volunteer bulletins, and system messages. The specific notifications you receive depend on your role and the teams or events you are associated with.

If you are not receiving expected notifications, check that your primary email address is verified. Digest emails are sent to your verified primary address. You can manage your email addresses from the Profile tab in Account Settings.
