Stay in the Loop: Now Get Notified for Mentions and Comments in Groups

Index

Your conversations in Groups just got a lot more connected. With our latest update, users will now receive real-time push notifications and alerts in the Notification Center whenever someone interacts with their content or tags them in a discussion.

Never Miss a Relevant Interaction Again

Group discussions are dynamic—but staying on top of them hasn’t always been easy. With this release, we’re making sure that if someone engages with a post, comments, or mentions you, you’ll be the first to know—no matter the role or the type of post.

Why This Matters

📌 Instant Feedback, Better Collaboration

This update makes group communication more responsive and helps keep relevant participants in the loop.

What you’ll gain:

  • Faster response times to ongoing discussions.
  • Increased visibility into group activity that directly involves a user.
  • Stronger collaboration by making it easier to follow up on feedback or questions.

🛠️ What’s Included

This new feature ensures that users are notified in the following cases:

  • ✅ When someone comments on a user’s post.
  • ✅ When someone replies to a user’s comment.
  • ✅ When users are mentioned in any group post or comment.

These notifications will be sent via:

  • Push notification to the user’s device.
  • Notification Center within the platform.

📌 If users are mentioned in a comment on their own post, they’ll only receive one notification (to avoid duplication)—just like in the Social Feed.

Other important notes:

  • This feature works regardless of admin status or whether the post originally triggered a push notification.
  • Notifications are not configurable—they’ll always be sent to ensure users don’t miss critical interactions.
  • Clicking the alert will take users straight to the post where the activity happened.

✨ Mentions and Comments Notifications in Action

Wondering how this will help in your daily workflow?

  • “Someone replied to my question in a group—did I miss it?” → Not anymore. You’ll get an instant push so you can respond in real time.
  • “I was tagged in a conversation but didn’t know.” → Now, you’ll always be alerted when someone mentions you.
  • “Do admins get these too?” → Yes! Notifications are universal, not limited by role.
  • “Where do I find them?” → You’ll see them both as push alerts and in your Notification Center.

✅ Available Now in the Groups Module

This feature is already live—no setup required. Just head to Groups and keep the conversation flowing.
