QMplus Administrators - emails
26 September 2014, 16:07
This message is particularly for those who have QMplus administrators rights
Dear fellow QMplus administrators,
We are getting quite a few email alerts (well, loads!) from courses where students have completed a quiz.
A few meetings ago, it was agreed that the administrator role should receive these alerts. Is this still a desired feature of the administrator role, or can we consider switching off the (enormous number of) email alerts from the administrator role or removing the email alerts as the default?
Thoughts?

In Maths we don't use quizzes much (if at all), but if we did (or when we do) I don't want to receive email about them.
I also don't want to receive module announcements from all our modules unless I specifically subscribe, but I understand there is no way to avoid them (or at least that was the case last year).
Best wishes, Francis

Yes, we found this out by setting all our first years a quiz to help them find their way around.
Please make them stop!

Yes, please remove this setting. Can this be turned off any other way at our end either for the course or individual user whilst this is sorted?Gary

If we can remove this and the same for the forum posts that would be most useful

Notifications can be managed by going to Messaging in the SETTINGS pane to the left of your My Profile page.

Thank you for the feedback on the emails. I was referring to more generally being able to turn off the email subscription for administrators, but Hassan is right, and has raised a good point. You can turn off the emails on your end by going to your profile, under the settings, click on messaging and you can turn off any emails that you don't want to receive (or turn them on). Thanks Hassan.

You can but this is a pain having to explain it to each external staff member and that IT can't do that for them.
It would be great if the default was no e-mails and you could choose to turn them on rather than the other way round.
