I don’t know if this is one of the changes that came with the last upgrade. Most likely, I think I touched a setting and created this issue myself.

In the past week, I started for the first time getting messages in the admins inbox where appear to be a copy of notifications:

How can I revert this behavior? I’ve been searching the notifications settings in Admin panel and am not able to find it yet.

Thanks

Edit: I could be wrong, but I don’t remember seeing this before (or maybe it was there be for sure empty until ~ last 6 days):

it could be your own notifications, and not just the admin

Did you change site contact username?

The titles of those notifications don’t indicate that. It’s other users’ system notifications.

I will check this. And edit my response.

I’m going to revert this now. Looks like I changed this during my editing of the “About” page. Will mark solved once confirmed.

Edit: forum isn’t very active, so I will instead uncheck solution if the issue persists. Thanks!
