How to Enable the Notification for Article Updates

 

ProProfs Knowledge Base lets you notify users when you’ve published a new article or updated an existing one. If you wish otherwise, you also have the choice to disable this notification.

 

Notifying users of new information in your knowledge base keeps them up to date about your product or service.

 

Here’s an example of the permission pop-up you will see every time you hit the ‘Publish’ button.
