Is there a way to have the Wiki send out notification emails on every change to the wiki.

As far as I can tell, the only option for sending out notification emails is for moderated pages only.

Someone please correct me on this, and let me know how to turn on the global wiki notifications if it is possible.

Thanks in advance.

There isn’t a feature for this as far as I know - but you can subscribe to the RSS feed for recent changes. If you really want email there are services to email you information based off an RSS Feed, too.

You could also put in a feature request for this. =)

The emailed RSS feed is a good thought, Lisa. Since wiki moderation will be handled by a somewhat less technically savvy member of the office, an email solution is ideal.

Yeah, yeah - I’m always getting the reminder about feature requests ‘round these parts. I just want to make sure I’m not requesting something that already exists.

Of course, Jacob - never hurts to ask first, though I tend to lurk in the FR forum too *grins*  But yes, not available now - my suggestion would just give you an immediate solution. =)

Indeed, and it is much appreciated. It’s spring and that’s normally when a young man’s fancy turns to RSS, I just hadn’t given it a thought.
