Email notifications

Pliic sends an email whenever something relevant happens to a suggestion or a support ticket — both to whoever submitted it and, when it makes sense, to whoever voted on it. There’s nothing to configure: these emails are automatic and already enabled on every plan.

EventWho receives it
A suggestion’s status changes (e.g. Planned → In progress)The suggestion’s author always; voters if the “Notify voters” option is checked
Someone comments on a suggestionThe suggestion’s author and anyone who commented on it before
A support ticket is createdWhoever opened the ticket (confirmation receipt)
The team publicly replies to a ticketWhoever opened the ticket
A ticket is marked resolvedWhoever opened the ticket
A ticket is assigned to a team memberThe team member who received the ticket

Internal notes on a ticket (visible only to the team) never send an email to whoever opened the ticket.

When you change a suggestion’s status from the dashboard, Pliic opens a confirmation before applying the change, with a Notify voters option checked by default.

  • The suggestion’s author always receives the status update email, regardless of this option.
  • The Notify voters checkbox only controls whoever voted on the suggestion. Uncheck it when you want to update the status without sending a wave of emails — for small tweaks or status corrections, for example.

If your team’s public board is enabled, the status update email includes a button to view the suggestion on the public page.

The four key moments of a ticket — creation, reply, resolution, and assignment — already trigger an email automatically, with no team configuration needed:

  • Creation: whoever opened the ticket receives a receipt confirming it was received.
  • Public reply: when a team member replies to the ticket (not an internal note), whoever opened it receives the reply by email.
  • Resolution: when the ticket is marked resolved, whoever opened it receives a closing email.
  • Assignment: when a ticket is assigned to a team member, that member receives an email letting them know.

Unsubscribing (for whoever receives suggestion and ticket emails)

Section titled “Unsubscribing (for whoever receives suggestion and ticket emails)”

Every notification email has an unsubscribe link in the footer — plus the native unsubscribe button in Gmail and Apple Mail, next to the sender. Clicking it opens a confirmation page, with the option to resubscribe at any time.

Unsubscribing applies to all notification emails from that app — it isn’t possible to unsubscribe from just one type (e.g. suggestions only) while keeping another active.
