Email Notifications for New Direct Messages

Hi, I'm not sure if I've overlooked this setting somewhere, or if this feature isn't available yet. I usually visit my community once a week to catch up on new posts and updates. A few times, someone has sent me a direct message during the week, but I didn't notice it until my next visit because I don't receive any notification when a new message arrives. Is there a setting that enables email notifications for new direct messages? If not, would it be possible to add this feature? It would be really helpful, as I could visit the community right away and respond much more quickly. Thanks!

You should be receiving an email with the note β€œ1 new message in your inbox”.

Settings are here: https://community.wpmanageninja.com/portal/u/jorgedelosreyes/notification-settings

(The equivalent on your site).

You get the notification and the full message.

Jorge de los ReyesΒ I can't see an option to enable email notifications when I receive a message from someone.

Chris, you have to enable this from the chat settings.
Then the option will appear in the profile notification settings.
