GoHighLevel Update: Communities – Enhancements for Email Preferences

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by a flood of emails? Too many notifications can be distracting, but missing important updates can be just as frustrating.

The latest GoHighLevel update for Communities – Enhancements for Email Preferences solves this problem! With 14 new email preferences, you can now control which notifications you receive so you get the updates that matter without the clutter.

Let’s dive into what’s new, why it’s a game-changer, and how you can use it today!

GoHighLevel has introduced new email preference settings to give community owners and members more flexibility. Here’s what’s been added:

1. More Email Notification Options  

Now, you have 14 new email preferences that allow you to:

• Track membership changes – Get notified when a member joins, requests access, or is removed.
• Stay updated on role changes – Know when admin roles shift within the community.
• Monitor engagement – Get alerts about new comments, posts, and reported content.

Some key additions include:

• Group Membership Status Emails – Be notified when someone joins, leaves, or gets removed.
• New Member Request Emails – Get updates when people request to join your community.
• Added to Private Channel Emails – Receive a notification when added to an exclusive group.
• Subscription & Payment Status Emails – Track who has paid and who hasn’t.

2. Improved Post & Comment Notifications  

• Now, when you’re tagged in a post or comment, your email will show a preview of the message so you can see what’s important without logging in.

3. Enhanced Email Templates for Clearer Communication  

• The default email templates now display custom values, so you can personalize messages and improve communication with community members.

4. PayPal Now Supported for Payments  

• Managing paid communities just got easier! PayPal is now fully supported, making subscription tracking more seamless.

These improvements are all about saving time and making community management smoother.

These enhancements are designed to give you more control and efficiency. Here’s how they help:

1. Get the Right Emails, Not All Emails  

Before this update, you might have received too many notifications. Now, you can:

• Turn off unnecessary alerts to reduce inbox clutter.
• Only receive the most important updates to stay focused.

2. Save Time with Post & Comment Previews  

• No more clicking through emails to check if a comment is relevant. Preview snippets let you see important details at a glance saving you time and effort.

3. Better Community Management for Admins  

Admins can now:

• Quickly approve or decline membership requests from their email.
• Receive real-time updates on role changes and reported content.
• Stay informed about member status changes—whether they were added to a private channel or removed from a group.

4. Easier Payment Management with PayPal Support  

• If you run a paid community, this update makes tracking payments smoother, reducing the hassle of manually handling subscriptions.
