- Click on the person icon at the bottom of the box that appears
- Click on Notifications
- In the notify when liked box, you can select when you get notified when someone likes your posts
- If you want your browser to display a “push” notification, you can specify that here. Note that you have to open this setting in each browser that you use and toggle it.
- If you want only to receive notifications during certain times of the day, use this setting.
You can also change the behavior per Category (Boat Systems, General, etc):
