‍

2. Introducing Notification Center

The Notification Center is here to help you stay on top and never miss a message. This will be your single source of truth and the place to go to catch up and make sure that you have not missed anything.

‍

What will you find in the Notification Center

The Notification Center is personal and here you will find notifications for posts, comments and mentions. You will not see notifications for chat messaging as these have their own channel.

- Posts
- Comments
- Mentions

‍

Easily see unread notifications

To help you stay on top, notifications will remain unread until you have either seen the post, confirmed that you have read the posts, confirmed your participation in events or you have marked the notification as read.

‍

How notifications change status from unread to read

Here is list of actions that will change the status on your notifications from unread to read:

Just swipe to the left in the app to mark the notification as read.

‍

Notifications awaiting your reply

If a post awaits your reply, the notification will be marked as read once you have replied on the post. It is not possible to mark posts awaiting your reply as read without confirming your action on the post.

This is an example of a post requesting your participation.

This is an example of a post requesting your read confirmation.

‍

Mark all as read

Need to clean up? You can mark all your notifications as read in one action, or almost! Notifications that require your read confirmation or participation will only be marked as read, once you have confirmed your action on the post.

‍

Notifications are listed chronologically after publishing time

Notifications are always listed chronologically in the notification feed after creation time, which means that the newest notification will be at the top. You have the possibility to filter your notifications after:

- All notifications (default)
- All unread notifications
- Awaiting reply
- Mentions

‍

Notification settings

Go to the Notifications from My Profile and select your preferences. You can also choose to mute individual content or groups, by opening their contextual menu.

- Push notifications / Email notifications - Simply decide if you want your notifications delivered as push notifications in the app, by email, or both.
- Comments and replies - Mute comments and replies if you don’t want any notifications on comments and replies. This will apply for all posts.
- Mentions - If you don’t want to be notified when someone mentions you.
- Group activities - Mute notifications for individual groups.

Notifications for new posts shared with the organisation cannot be muted.

You can mute notifications for reminders, comments and replies on individual posts. However, notifications for mentions will not be muted.

Excluded notifications

Some posts may be excluded from the Notification Center, when the author of a post doesn't find it relevant to notify you about it. This could e.g. be events created months ahead.

Questions and answers to notifications

What happens if I have turned my notifications off?
When you turn your notifications off you will not receive push or email notifications. However you will always find your notifications in the Notification Center.

What happens when I click on a notification?

We will send you directly to the post for that notification.

How come that comments are consolidated in the same notification in the Notification Center?

Well, we want to ensure that you have an easy overview in the Notification Center. You could potentially have hundreds of notifications for the same post, which would clutter your Notification Center if we didn’t consolidate your comments’ notifications..
