The bell in the top bar is your in-app notification center. It collects the same alerts Formitor already sends you, so important events are visible the moment you open the dashboard.
What triggers a notification
You get a notification whenever something changes state — for example:
- A form starts failing to deliver, or recovers
- A site goes down, or comes back up
- An SSL certificate is approaching expiry
- A deliverability problem (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) or a notification address that can't receive mail
- A lead-volume anomaly (real leads dried up)
- A checkout (WooCommerce / SureCart) stops working
Each notification is tagged with the site (and form, when relevant) it's about, and color-coded by severity (info / warning / critical).
Reading and clearing them
- A red count on the bell shows how many are unread.
- Click a notification to mark it read (and follow its link, if any).
- Mark all read clears the count.
- The ✕ dismisses a notification — this removes it permanently.
Does this replace email / Slack?
No. In-app notifications arrive alongside your existing channels (email, Slack, Discord, Teams, SMS, webhooks). Configure those under Notifications.
