Notifications

Kotisivukamu notifies you about important events in the dashboard, by email and as browser push notifications. You can choose which notifications you receive and through which channel.

Notification channels​

Dashboard​

Notifications appear under the bell icon in the dashboard's top bar. There you see, for example, new contact requests, deployment status, domain registrations, invoices and improvement suggestions for your sites.

Email​

  • Contact requests are sent to the site's notification emails, which are set in the site settings (see below).
  • Deployments (successful or failed) and other account notifications, such as invoices and domain events, are sent to your account email address.

Browser push notifications​

Push notifications arrive directly in your browser or on your phone, even when the dashboard is not open. They are sent, for example, for new contact requests and for successful and failed deployments. Push notifications are enabled per device on the Profile page.

WhatsApp​

If you started a site edit via WhatsApp, you get a reply in the same conversation when the change is complete or fails.

Your own systems (webhook)​

Form submissions can also be sent automatically to your own system, such as a CRM. This is set up on the site's Integrations page. Read more: Integrations

Notification emails (contact requests)​

Messages from the site's contact form are sent to the notification emails. When a site is created, the creator's email address is added there. You can change the addresses per site:

  1. Open the site's Settings page
  2. Add the addresses where you want notifications under Notification emails
  3. You can add up to 5 email addresses
  4. Changes are saved automatically

Site settings

Spam​

Form submissions are checked automatically. If a submission looks like a bot's, for example it was sent within a couple of seconds of opening the page, the message is marked as spam. No email, notification or integration delivery is sent for it, but the message is not lost: it is listed under Spam on the Contacts page. If the message is genuine, open it and choose Not spam, deliver. It moves in with the other contact requests and the notifications are sent as usual.

Note

Notification emails are site-specific. If you have multiple sites, set the addresses for each site separately. If a site has no notification address at all, you get a reminder about it.

Push notifications​

  1. Go to the Profile page and the Notifications section
  2. Press Add this device
  3. The browser asks for permission to send notifications. Accept the request
  4. You can test it with Send a test notification to this device

Push notifications are device-specific. Each browser and device is added separately, and the registered devices are listed in the same place, where you can also remove them. If the browser has blocked notifications, allow them in the browser settings.

Which notifications you receive​

In the Notifications section of the Profile page you can limit notifications:

  • Channels: turn off the dashboard, email or push channel entirely.
  • Site-specific notifications: mute all notifications for a single site.
  • Team-specific notifications: mute all notifications for a team. This also mutes the team's sites unless you turn them back on separately.
  • Event-specific notifications: choose per event which channels you want (for example new contact requests, successful and failed deployments, invoices).
