Hi everyone,
We’re new to Discourse and are currently moving from Slack to a private Discourse community for our business. There are about 50 active users, and a lot of topics created and messages are being posted.
Since many messages are sent and topics are created, no one will be able to keep up with everything. That’s why we currently tag people when there’s a topic they shouldn’t miss.
One challenge we’re facing is making it as intuitive as possible for users who have little to no experience with forums / Discourse.
We have added “Unread” to the sidebar. It would be helpful if messages where someone is mentioned also appeared under “Unread.” That way, people only need to check one place.
For users unfamiliar with how forums work, relying solely on the “Unread” tab would simplify their experience and ensure they don’t miss important discussions.
Sorry for posting in an old topic — if this is inappropriate, feel free to remove this message. But I was wondering if there are still plans to add this option?
