We've upgraded how email notifications work to provide more flexibility, and help you keep up to date with the people who matter most to you. For instance, you now have the ability to get email notifications whenever someone assigned to you donates.
Specifically, each control panel user can now specify whether they want email notifications for a particular activity (like donations or rsvps) for everyone, just people assigned to them, or just for people/pages they are following. NationBuilder defaults to sending you email notifications just for people assigned to you or people/pages you are following. Your settings can be changed under Settings > Your Account > Email notifications. And you can change the settings for someone else by going to their profile page and clicking on Notifications.
On pages, we've removed the "Who to notify when someone does [x]" concept entirely. Getting email notifications for a page is now based on whether you are following that page. Anyone who was previously set to get email notifications on that page was automatically converted to be a follower so they would continue to receive the notifications.
Also, we've replaced the concept of event types with tags. Event types were an old concept from before we had page tags, so this just makes it more consistent with how every other page type works. All of the existing functionality with calendars being able to just show certain event types have been upgraded to just show certain tags, and any existing event types were automatically converted to page tags.
