Hey all,

I impersonated a user just to ensure that our greeting message from the bot worked as it should.

I needed to click on the profile button to log out though and the notification (the little number beside the users profile button) dissapeared. Is there a way to bring it back?

I did accidentally click on another of their notifications when trying to click on the greetings message… this is what has caused the notification to go away as it was officially read.

I don’t think you can bring it back if you open up the panel. The only things that still shows the notifications are the icons in the pane (replies, likes, mail, bookmarks etc) that should still have a number next to them.
