Comments: Notifications and Notification Style

A. Currently, we don’t get notified if someone replies to a comment we made in Speckle unless the recipient tags the name of the comment author. I think it would make sense that you get notified whenever someone replies to your comment … and that everyone involved in the discussion gets notified too.

B. Ideally not just with a mail and a button you can click but with meaningful content as overview

Another good suggestion!

The only extra complication here is letting users “unfollow” a thread after participating in it, in case they don’t want to be notified all the times.
Does BIMCollab offer the opportunity to do so?

in BIMcollab you can regulate the amount of notifications in the account settings:

  • Never
  • Immediately
  • Daily
  • weekly

Or it works like in your forum

This is all very good feedback (as always coming from you!), and we’ll likely incorporate it once we launch workspaces and focus on threads/comments and their associated rather huge potential for coordination.

cc @benjavo for visibility, as per the usual (even though you’re away on paternity leave!)
