# Weekly digest

Weekly digest is a method of [notification](/reference/glossary/notification.md), allowing the [member](/reference/glossary/member.md) to keep up to date with the latest [comments](/reference/glossary/comment.md) and discussion related to a [group](/reference/glossary/group.md) by receiving a single email once weekly.

> **Note:** Announcements are always sent immediately to group members regardless of their notification settings.

## Email template

When a member has set their notification to [daily](/reference/glossary/daily_digest.md) or weekly digest, they receive the [comment-digest email](/guide/configuration/emails/templates/comment-digest.md) instead of the [new-comment email](/guide/configuration/emails/templates/new-comment.md), unless the comment was sent as an announcement or is an [essential](/reference/glossary/notification.md) notification.

The `frequency` attribute of the [notification element](/guide/configuration/emails/templates/comment-digest.md) is then set to `weekly`.

## Configuration

Administrators can configure daily digest email using the [global properties](/guide/configuration/properties/global_properties.md).

Use the `notifyDailyTime` global property to set the time of the day the daily and weekly digest emails are sent to group members.

Use the `notifyWeekly​Day` global property to set the day of the week the digest emails are sent to the group. It must be one of `monday`, `tuesday`, `wednesday`, `thursday`, `friday`, `saturday`, or `sunday`.

Daily and weekly digest comment notifications can be disabled by setting the `notifyProcess` global property to `false`.

> **Note:** Digest emails can only be configured globally – they cannot be configured differently for individual groups.

## Changing the notification

Members can change their notification settings for each group by editing the membership in the **groups and invitations page**. [Administrators](/reference/glossary/administrator.md) can also edit the notification settings on behalf of users from the user’s **account profile page** and [managers](/reference/glossary/manager.md) from the group administration, **manage members page**.
