Board Comments

The board comments feature lets users collaborate directly on a board through a panel where they can start and follow threaded conversations tied to a specific board view.

To enable the comments feature on a board:

• Add the <commentsbutton> tag to its HTML. For more information, see <commentsbutton>.

• Use Boardscript to add visual elements, like icons or unread indicators. See Boards Comments Functions.

Comments allow you to:

• Add a clarifying question on a record without leaving the board.

• @mention a user or position to loop them into a discussion with automatic notifications.

• Document decisions and context directly on a record so the next shift has the full picture.

• Subscribe to a thread to stay informed as updates come in-no need to keep the board open.

Specifically, with board comments, you can:

• Mention individual users or positions by typing @. This sends a notification to the person’s inbox and/or email with a direct link to the board and the comment context; mentioning a position notifies everyone assigned to that position.

  External contacts are notified by email only.

• Watch a thread to get notified about new replies without keeping the board open.

• React to comments with a reply comment or a 'Like'.

  Users aren’t notified when their comments receive likes, but they can see the like count on each comment and hover over the icon to view who liked it.

• Edit or delete your comments.

  Administrators can delete comments from any user.
