Email & Notification Settings
September 10, 2017
uCare is equipped with many automated email notifications that you can enable, disable or customize. The email templates look professional out of the box. Additionally, the email templates have shortcodes so that you can send tailored emails to each user.
Each type of notification will be automatically associated with an email template. You can use the dropdown to associate the notification with a different template, or simply to disable the notification. To view or edit the contents of the email, you can do so by heading over to the Email Templates menu in your WordPress dashboard.
Disabling a certain notification can be done by selecting the “Notification Disabled” option.
