Why is there a Welcome notification in the log on a newly added user – when I specifically have turned off the "Send notification" box under Notifications?
And, pressing the eye icon on the user's page, this notification seems as though it has been sent in an email. It wasn't, no mail was received.
I think this is a misrepresentation. What need is there to have a "notification" on something not sent?
Hey Kjell Inge Torgersen 
If you are seeing notification entries for the users that are happening after you disabled "Send email notifications" on the admin side, that is something we should look into further and it would be great if you filed a ticket for that with Bridge Support.
Is it possible that some notification went out before the setting was disabled and those are the ones you are seeing? I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks again for converting this to a question.
Thanks for getting back, Adam.
Re your question: No, I made sure that the setting was disabled before I added the user, but still the entry showed up on the user log. (Did you test it yourself?)
If you could point me in the right direction (link?), I can add a support ticket.
all the best,
Kjell Inge T.
You can create a ticket at Bridge Support. Please let us know what the outcome of the troubleshooting is and thanks for the prompt replies.
Actually, Kjell Inge Torgersen, I was just discussing this further with someone, and there was a misunderstanding at first. We are aware that when those settings are toggled off, the notification entry still shows in the users notifications area even though no email is sent out. There is no need to submit a support ticket and I apologize for the misunderstanding. The discussion here was very helpful though and I am returning to process your original feature idea now.
Kjell, the idea is re-opened for voting at Do not list user notifications if emails are disabled. I modified the title and added a note in the description. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and thanks for taking the time to submit an idea and work through it with us.
Thanks, Adam. The main point is that the notification seems to be sent out as an email in the user's notification area/log, which is not the case.
Ok, I will not create a support ticket.
