I get notifications of likes on a blog post although I am not foolwing it?

Question

I have the autowatch option disabled and I create a blog post in a space. Because autowatch is disabled I am not following the post and I do not get a notification when someone reacts on it.

But when someone likes it I do get a notification. Do likes always send a notification?

Hi Charlie,

This is a general setting? If I disable the notifications there, it is disabled for everyone? This is not a personal setting?

Also: the documentation mentions 'Open an email notification of a like, and click Manage Notifications' but this does not bring me to the screen to disable the likes, but to my personal settings.

Thanks,

Patrick

Hi Patrick

This is a different setting in your preferences. See this documentation article

Go to <your_confluence URL>/plugins/likes/view-notifications.action to disable those notifications.
