Managing Your Site's Notification Settings

4 min read
You receive a notification whenever someone interacts with your site (e.g., if they submit a contact form, purchase a product from your online store or book a room in your hotel).
You can choose which notifications you want to receive and where you want to see them. By default, you receive notifications on your site's dashboard, but you can also receive push notifications directly on your desktop web browser or on your phone through the Wix Owner app.
In this article:

Managing your dashboard notifications

At the top of your site's dashboard, you'll see 3 notification icons. 
  • The Inbox icon  indicates that someone contacted you through your site. 
  • The Bell icon  lets you see when someone interacted with your site, such as purchasing a product from your store, or booking a service.
  • The New Releases icon  shows you product updates which are relevant to the tools and features you're using.

A red alert bubble appears on any of the icons when there's a new notification available. Click the icon to view the notification and reset the counter. 
You can also choose which notifications you want to see and which ones you'd rather ignore.

To enable or disable your dashboard notifications:

  1. Go to Notification Settings
  2. Click Dashboard.
  3. Enable or disable the toggle next to the notifications you want to see in your dashboard. 

Enabling desktop push notifications

Desktop push notifications pop up on your web browser, even when you're not on Wix.com. Enable desktop push notifications to make sure you never miss an update. 

To enable desktop push notifications:

  1. Go to your Notification Settings
  2. Click Turn On next to Enable Desktop Notifications.
Important:
If your browser settings are set to Block, you will not be able to get desktop notifications. To enable desktop notifications, choose Allow in your browser's settings. 

Follow the instruction for the browser you are using: 

Receiving notifications on your phone

Receive notifications directly to your phone using the Wix Owner app. The app helps you create, manage and grow your business on the go and communicate with your visitors and members from anywhere. Learn more about the Wix Owner app.
You can choose which notifications you want to receive and disable the ones you don't.

To enable or disable your Wix Owner app notifications:

  4. Tap Settings.
