Important Changes to Beauty Insider Community Private Messages

[SephoraBIC]

Beginning August 1st, 2024 at around 9am Pacific Time, the default Forum private message setting will be set to “OFF” for all members of the Beauty Insider Community. This means that all members of the Beauty Insider Community, including existing members who currently have their private messages turned on, will have their PMs defaulted to OFF on August 1st. Please visit account settings (the gear icon) on a desktop or mobile web browser to adjust your preferences.  

Once private messaging is re-enabled after being toggled off by default, any previous message history will be restored. Going forward, new members joining Community for the first time will have their private messages turned off by default when they register, with the ability to visit account settings to adjust their preferences.

@TeamBIC We are looking to turn it back on but it doesn't give us an option as the envelope icon shows up and disappears.  I can only see an email notification option.

@SportyGirly125, thank you for letting us know! We are looking into this now. 

Best regards,

Laurie

@SephoraBIC Thanks!

@SephoraBIC just to clarify: our "old" PMs aren't going to be deleted.  Is this right?

[LaurieBT]

@greeneyedgirl107, that's correct! Once private messaging is re-enabled after being toggled off by default, your previous message history will be restored.
