Grouping notifications on posts in a feed

Back to top

If you create a post or interact with a post, notifications for the same activity on that post will be grouped into a single notification. For example, all notifications for likes on that post will be grouped together. 

Grouping notifications on content

If you author, collaborate, or interact with a piece of content, notifications for the same activity on that piece of content will be grouped into a single notification. For example, all notifications for likes on a piece of content will be grouped together. 

Here are the ways notifications may be grouped:

• all likes on your content
• all comments on your content 
• all likes on your comment(s)
• all replies to your comment(s)
• all likes on your replies
• all replies to your replies

all the likes your post received are grouped together

all comments your page received are grouped together

Unseen/unread notifications

All unseen and unread notifications for the same activity on the same piece of content/or feed post will be grouped into a single notification. Notification timestamps will be updated per the last activity while unread/unseen.

If a piece of knowledge content requires your validation, you'll receive an actionable validation notification for it. If the content is either validated or unpublished while in your notification drawer, the notification will be withdrawn.
