KidzLog
Center Settings

Notification Settings

Switch center-wide notification categories on or off for your team and families.

The Notifications tab holds the center-wide master switches for which categories of notifications KidzLog is allowed to send. Turn one off here and nobody at the center receives it, regardless of their personal notification preferences in their own profile.

How to Access

Open Settings from your avatar menu (Owners and Admins only), then click the Notifications tab.

Owners only edit; Admins read-only. Admin team members can see the settings, but the toggles and Save button are disabled — only Owners can change them.

What Each Group Does

The page is organised into four groups. Each toggle is on by default for a new center.

Team Members

  • Team member added — emails Owners and Admins when a new staff member is invited or accepts an invite
  • Team member removed — emails Owners and Admins when a staff member is removed from the center
  • Team member role changed — emails Owners and Admins when an existing member's role is updated

Parents

  • Parent added — notifies Owners and Admins when a parent is invited and when they accept
  • Parent removed — notifies Owners and Admins when a parent is removed from a child

Children

  • Child added — notifies Owners and Admins when a new child profile is created
  • Child removed — notifies Owners and Admins when a child profile is deleted or archived

Capacity (coming soon)

The Capacity group is reserved for upcoming alerts. The toggles are visible but disabled today.

  • Classroom capacity reached — will alert when a classroom hits its enrolment cap
  • Program capacity reached — will alert when a program hits its enrolment cap

Center Switches vs. Personal Preferences

These are center-wide master switches — they decide whether KidzLog can send a category at all. Each user also has their own per-notification toggles under Profile → Notifications, which they use to opt out of categories they personally don't want to receive.

The logic is one-way: turning a category off here suppresses it for everyone, but turning it on still lets individual users opt out via their own profile. Personal off always wins.

Plan a new notification category for everyone? Flip it on here first, then ask staff who don't want it to opt out in their profile — rather than the other way around.

Saving

Click Save at the bottom of the page. A success toast confirms the change. The new master switches take effect on the next event — KidzLog does not retroactively send or suppress notifications for events that already happened.
