MicrosoftStill getting notifications for channels I've turned them off for - how to disable?
I'm receiving notifications for channels which I've explicitly turned them off for, and the channels are hidden in the team. I've tried showing the channels again, going to channel notifications and ...
Yup, that and Trending, make sure they are off on mobile too since I don't believe they sync on/off for the account.
Hi ChrisWebbTech, I have this same issue. I've disabled notifications for a channel, but still get notifications in activity. I've tried toggling on and off, but the notifications keep coming through. Is there a fix?
Thanks,
Jesse
- That did not work. I’ve only got access to the desktop version as well.
- It's possible you had followed channels on and the setting is taking the default still since general is always followed. Change the settings to on, then turn them off again, see if that "resets" the setting.
- All new posts > Off & Channel mentions > Off
- You should be able to right click the "General" Channel that Team and go to Channel Notifications, what are the settings in that channel.
- This is what it looks like - notifications are off for this team and I don’t have the suggested option in my message settings as mentioned above.
- What icon is showing for the notification?
- I’m getting these notifications constantly on the desktop for one team and only one channel. No lightbulb, can’t figure out how to stop them.
Hi ChrisWebbTech, I think that was it. Those notifications are unbelievably annoying because they appear the same as a direct message or channel mention would. Thank you very much for the help.
- Those are suggested notifications "Lightbulb" icon and annoyingly new and on by default. Go to your settings(photos top right) > Notifications to disable Suggested type to get rid of them.
