Notifications
Unlike the current discussion board, email notifications about new posts/replies do not appear to include the actual content of said post, just a link to view the content online. That will get old very fast.

Any way to get these notifications via a slack webhook instead?
It would be good to be able to understand (and ideally respond) to community engagement without being bombarded by more emails.

yumdarling, I would also like to add a vote for Slack integration. đź‘Ť
In my mind it is no different than receiving an email notification.
Just another platform to drive people to using the new Cato Connect portal. 🙂

Actually I think it’s a setting because I just got the notification with the full message….
That's promising! Yours came through with content to me as well. Mine from yesterday looked like below, possibly there are variations based on notification type.
yumdarlingJM - That's interesting - can you let me know if you receive this comment as a full email or just a notification that your post has a reply? I'm wondering if it has to do with the @ mention or if it's because it's a reply to a post, or something else entirely :)
Robin, I'll take a look into this suggestion - personally, and perhaps selfishly, I'd prefer people come to Cato Connect to reply to their comments, otherwise they'll miss all the other great content on the site, but if it's something that's important to our users, I will see if this is a possibility.

Thank youyumdarling !
Any possibility of an RSS feed so we can easily see all the new goodness? :)
I got your comment as a full mail. Let's see what happens on your end when I at-mention you yumdarling :)

I just got an @ mention email! Interesting. I'm going to make a note of this to our platform team.
Robin, let me see what I can do :) I'm sure we can figure it out.
