Turning email notifications for comments, notes, and schedule reminders on and off

1 min. read Updated November 13, 2025

You can ask LivePlan to notify you by email whenever a contributor or guest adds a comment in your business plan. These users can also choose to receive these email notifications. Additionally, reminder emails can also be sent for milestones that have been scheduled in LivePlan

Comment notifications via email are turned off by default, but you can easily enable this setting by following the steps outlined below:

If a contributor or guest enables email notifications, they will receive notifications for all accessible plans. The notification setting cannot be enabled or disabled on a plan-by-plan basis.

To turn email notifications for comments on or off:

1. 

Click the Account Menu in the lower-left corner of your LivePlan window and select Manage Account:
