Notifications for Community Members

Hi, everyone! Does anyone have any best practices for ensuring members of our community get notified? It seems like the community member needs to follow topics/posts to receive notifications, so wondering if anyone has done anything else to try to increase notifications going out to community members? Thanks!

Hi Colby,
 
There are no in-app notifications or administrator view of community posts in Gather. In order to receive notifications for community activity, you will need to "follow" every topic in your community, and you will then receive email notifications when users post.
 
The best workaround is to set up a Gmail account that can be dedicated to receiving notifications and then create a Help Center account with that email address and subscribe it to everything in your community. This way, you can use Gmail's labeling functionality to help track and manage your community conversations.
