How do I get notified about new comments on someone else's post?
You can turn on comment notifications for another member's post. When someone leaves a new comment, you get notified just like you would on your own content.
- Open the "..." menu on the post.
- Select "Turn On Comment Notifications".
You'll see "Comment Notifications Turned On!" to confirm.
How do I turn them off?
You can turn comment notifications off at any time:
- Open the "..." menu on the post and select "Turn Off Comment Notifications", or
- Open the "..." menu on any of those comment notifications and select "Turn Off Comment Notifications".
Push and email alerts for these comments follow your "Comments" setting under "Reactions" in your Notification Settings.
Why don't I see "Turn On Comment Notifications"?
The author decides who can turn on comment notifications for their posts. If the option isn't in the menu, the author hasn't allowed it for you. Group discussions have their own follow option.
How do I choose who can turn on comment notifications for my posts?
- Go to your Privacy Settings.
- Scroll down to "Comments".
- Under "Who can turn on comment notifications for my posts?", choose an option for "Pictures & Videos" and for "Statuses, Writings & Other Posts":
- All FetLifers
- Friends, Followers, and People I Follow
- Friends and People I Follow
- Friends Only
- No One
If you narrow this setting, members who no longer fit stop getting comment notifications for your posts.
