Reference

Each part of the notification settings is also a wiki macro, so a wiki can present the settings somewhere other than the user profile, for instance on a page of its own welcome space.

{{notificationsEmailPreferences/}}The mail frequency and the level of detailtarget, user
{{notificationsAutoWatchPreferences/}}The automatic page watching settingtarget, user
{{notificationsSystemFiltersPreferences/}}The system filters and their switchestarget, user
{{notificationsCustomFiltersPreferences/}}The custom filters, with the button that adds onetarget, user

target is user or wiki, and selects whose preferences are displayed: those of a user, or those of the current wiki. user names that user, and defaults to the current one. Editing another user's preferences requires the right to edit their profile.

The older {{notificationsFiltersPreferences/}} macro displayed the system and custom filters in one table and is deprecated; use the two macros that replaced it.

FAQ

Does a macro check rights?

Yes. A user who may not edit the profile named by the user parameter sees nothing they can change.
