Notifications: How to setup submission email alerts

You can enable the Community Content platform to send out reports of site usage data. When enabled, notifications will e-mail a report of usage stats to specified recipients whenever a new image/video or a specified number of new items or new videos have been submitted. The report gives numbers (both in total and for that day only) for images and videos.
