In the past, when a parent signed up for multiple conferences using the "register for multiple conferences" link, the site sent one confirmation per conference. Now when a parent signs up for multiple conferences using the "register for multiple conferences" link, the default setting is for the site to send one email confirmation containing all of the conferences' info so that

  1. parents don't receive many email at the same time
  2. teachers can see not only when the parents are meeting with the teacher but also when the parents are meeting with other teachers.

Admins can configure multiple conference notifications for their staff so that staff members receive all notifications when a parent signs up using "Register for multiple conferences" or receive just their own conference notifications when a parent signs up using "Register for multiple conferences."

  1. Log in as the admin
  2. In the "Summaries" menu at the top of the screen, select "Staff Summary"
  3. Using the checkboxes in the left column, select the staff whose settings you are editing
  4. Using the dropdown menu that says "with selected" above the list of names, select
    - "receive all confirmations for multiple conferences" if the staff member wants to be emailed regarding his/her conference and other conferences that were scheduled by the parent using the "Register for multiple conferences" option
    OR
    - "receive own confirmations for multiple conferences" if the staff member wants to be emailed about his/her conference but not receive email regarding other conferences that were scheduled by the parent using the "Register for multiple conferences" option

If the staff member has completely disabled email notifications, the staff member will not receive email regardless of the setting in Step 4.
