Notification Parameters for status field

You have to remember that you will not get notifications if you change status of your own article and even not your article but you change that status. You have to test it with 2 users. One subscribe to article. Another change status.

I have two users - A and B. A is in the "Testing" group. I submit a record using the settings in the attached image and A never receives anything. Maybe I am misunderstanding what this setting does. I was expecting an email like the Alert settings a little further down the page. Perhaps it's just a standard Cobalt notification.

I was hoping it was a feature that would email those in the group immediately when that status is set.

This is standard Cobalt notification. user can see it notification center. Also as red dot by record title.

User can also receive email, but not immediate. this is standard Cobalt feature when user can receive emails about any Cobalt notifications. By default emails are sent once a day. But user can change to once a month or immediate.

Create link in menu to notifivation center. There you will see Notification Options.

To activate emails you have to configure cron.
