We have just launched a new feature on Minti called "Notifications"!

Don't you just hate it when someone adds an important comment on one of your articles or blog posts (or questions, or photos), and you don't find it until months later when you are just randomly surfing around Minti? Well... you needn't get frustrated with that anymore.

  Here is a VERY quick summary of "Notifications"...  

1. You can add almost any item (ie: an advice article, a question, a photo, a blog post, a member blog, and a group)  to your notification list.
2. Whenever someone adds a comment to an item which is on your notification list you will be immediately notified by email about the comment.
3. Whenever you seed content (ie: a new article, a new blog post, a new photo, a new question) the "notify  me" check box will be default ticked. You can un-tick it of course.
4. Whenever you comment on an item the "notify me" box will not be default ticked. You will need to tick it if you wish to add that item to your notification list.
5. You can find a link to your notification list on the left hand navigation column on your member page. 
6. You can easily remove items from your notification list, either through the notification list itself or by going to the specific item and clicking "remove from notifications". 
7. You can mass remove all items from your notifications list by clicking on the "unsubscribe from all content" text link on your notifications list page.
8. We have automatically added a number of items to your notifications list already (ie: your articles, your questions, your photos, and your blog posts). UPDATE (25th Feb): Our script (computer program) that is doing this job is still running and has only currently completed the first 6,000 members of our 40,000 member base, so it probably isn't up to your account yet. Please be patient it will get to your account over the next couple of days)
9. You can also add any item to your notifications list by just going to the item (ie: an article, blog post, q&a) and click the "add to notifications" link on the top right of the item.
10. You can even add groups, and member blogs to your notifications and you will be alerted when a new blog post is created.
11. Privacy = only you can see what is in your notifications list. No one else can see what you have in your list, and you can't see what is in their list.

We hope you enjoy the new feature and are able to keep up to date on Minti easier. 

If I have forgotten something feel free to add it in the comments below and I will update this post.

If you have any questions - comment below and I will be notified as I have this blog post on my notification list! ;)

PS: It may be a good idea to go and add your favourite member's blogs to your notification list, and even your favourite groups. That way you will be alerted when new blog posts in those respective blogs are created.
