Configure Your Atarim Notifications
Atarim can send you email notifications to help keep you informed about various activities and updates. While these notifications are helpful in tracking your projects, you may decide that the number of notifications becomes too high, given certain configurations, workflows, and integrations.
It is very easy to customize the frequency and type of email notifications you receive from Atarim. You can either choose global settings that cover all email notifications, or customize your notifications individually for each website in your Atarim dashboard.
This documentation outlines the available notification settings, and how you can configure them.
Configure Global Notification Settings
Step 1: Navigate to Settings
Log in to your Atarim dashboard and locate the main menu on the left side of the dashboard.
Click on the Settings option to access the settings menu.
Step 2: Access Email & Notifications
In the Settings menu, find and select the Email & Notifications option.
This will take you to the section where you can manage all email and notification-related settings.
Step 3: Open Notification Settings
Within the Email & Notifications section, click on the Notification Settings tab on the left.
This is where you will find the global notification settings that can be customized for your account.
Step 4: Customize Notification Preferences
In the Notification Settings section, you will see various options for different types of notifications. These include notifications for:
- New tasks
- New comments
- Task completions
- Status changes
- Periodic reports
You can configure each of these notification categories to ensure you receive emails for only those triggers which will be most helpful to you.
- Send Email Notification for Every New Task: This setting allows users to receive an email notification every time a new task is created. This is useful for keeping track of new assignments and ensuring that tasks are promptly addressed.
- Send Email Notification for Every New Comment: This setting ensures that users receive an email notification whenever a new comment is added to a task. This helps maintain effective communication and keeps everyone updated on task progress and discussions.

- Send Email Notification for Every Status Change: Users can receive email notifications for every status change of a task. This includes changes such as “In Progress,” “Review,” or any other custom status. Keeping track of status changes helps users stay updated on the task lifecycle.

This weekly report provides a comprehensive overview of the past week’s activities, helping users keep track of long-term progress.
Step 5: Save Changes
After configuring your preferred notification settings, make sure you save any changes you have made. Click on the Save Changes button at the top of the page to ensure your preferences are updated.
Local Notification Settings
If you want to set individual preferences for each site in your Atarim dashboard, then you can do that as well. To do this on a WordPress website, you first need to install the Atarim WordPress plugin.
After installing the plugin, go to the Atarim plugin settings tab in your WordPress dashboard, and toggle the switch from Dashboard to Local (see screenshot below).
This will allow you to edit the notification settings for your website from the WordPress dashboard.
Local notification settings within the Atarim settings tab allow administrators to manage email notifications for each WordPress website.
Let’s take a look at how to configure local notification settings, add additional email recipients, and customize notification preferences.
Additional Email Recipients
This setting allows administrators to send email notifications to additional addresses besides the primary user’s email address. This is useful for including either team members, or stakeholders who need to stay informed.
To send emails to multiple email addresses, just enter the email addresses separated by commas. For example: user@example.com, user2@example.com
