Interesting idea. If straightforward to implement - why not?

Not sure if this is part of the topic.. but when notified of a new comment on a topic.. it would be great to see which forum it came from. We have over 20 separate forums.. and sometimes the topic names are the same.. .. thanks!

John Simons: This is a separate request from this post. Would you please create a new post requesting the forum page's name be included in the notification email, as well? We can collect feedback for that request from there!

I agree, our forum has become pretty active but there is no way to see if a new comment has been posted about a topic you're following, unless you're actually participating in the discussion and you receive an email notification. Otherwise you're only shown the date the topic was originally posted. Instead of just New Comment, could you show the Originally Posted Date for the topic (as you do now) AND a "Last Comment Date" on the topic in the topic list? It is good that the topics with the most recent comments sort to the top of the list but for infrequent visitors to the forum, they never know when the last comment on a topic was made without opening it

Chris Juzda: Thank you for sharing this feedback, Chris. We have another post open for displaying the date of the latest comment in the forum topic preview. I would recommend adding your vote to that post, as well. I've linked this for you here: https://feedback.hoa-express.com/feature-requests/p/provide-the-date-of-latest-comment-in-the-forum-topic-preview.

John Doe: To clarify, are requesting to see notifications of new forum posts on that page or when you log onto the website?

Meredith Owens: At the forum page, mark new comments as new somehow.
