Notifications

People can opt in to receive notifications of new comments and replies for any post.

​

Following posts

For every post, someone can click the Follow button to receive notifications.

When someone creates a new post, or adds a comment or reply, they will automatically be Following the post so that they are notified of new activity.

Clicking the chevron next to the Follow button reveals the notification options available:

• Following: Receive notifications for new comments and replies.
• Not following: Do not receive notifications for new comments and replies unless mentioned.

​

Receiving notifications

Notifications are delivered to email and also within the Notifications inbox on the community site when logged-in.

​

Managing notifications

People can view all of the posts they are following by:

1. Clicking the Notifications inbox,
2. Then clicking the Settings icon.

From here, someone can easily Unfollow any posts they no longer wish to receive notifications for.

Every email notification also includes a one-click unsubscribe which will automatically unfollow the post that triggered the notification.

​

Mentions

Mentioning someone in a post, comment, or reply will also a trigger a notification to that person.

This can be done by typing @ in the editor, and then by searching for an individual.
