fsped09 | 223 Moderator · Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 @Gloves Is adding tags/keywords for notifications a possibility? For example, when my username gets tagged I get an alert and I can read/respond quickly. If/when people mention NES-City, I'd also like to get an alert. Given the volume of posts we have here, reading every single comment is a challenge. The next option is to search. While that works, it requires me to search quite often. If I don't search then I'm super late to comment. Thought it might be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,777 Administrator · Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 You could set up an Activity Stream which lists only pages with a "Nes-City" tag on them. You cannot however straight up just get a notification any time someone mentions a term. This would add a lot of extra load to the site, and would be especially vulnerable to abuse and potentially DDoS attacks (e.g. a bunch of accounts sign up to get notifications for the word "the"); it'd be easy to overload the system and take down the site with something like that.
