So that no one on the team misses anything, maebe keeps track of what's happening – and sorts it into two areas: activities and post alerts. You'll find both in your team's sidebar.
Activities – what's been going on?
The activity feed is your team's timeline. Here you can calmly follow what happened recently:
- a new post or a new project was created,
- someone renamed a post or changed the caption,
- a piece of media was uploaded,
- a comment was added,
- a new team member joined.
This is your overview to keep up with – none of it is urgent. Each entry shows who triggered it and which post or project it relates to.
Post alerts – something needs attention now
Post alerts are the urgent area. Only things that are time-critical and that you might want to respond to soon end up here:
- a post is waiting for your approval,
- a post was approved or rejected,
- an approval that had been given was withdrawn,
- a reminder that a scheduled post goes live soon.
You'll also see the upcoming publishing queue here. The small number on the sidebar entry tells you how many unread post alerts there are.
Why keep them apart?
This keeps the "urgent pile" from mixing with the normal history. Urgent updates don't get lost in the daily comings and goings, and your activity feed stays a calm, complete timeline. Anything that counts as a post alert deliberately does not also show up in the activities – so nothing appears twice.
Tip: In both areas you can use "Mark all as read" in the top right. It only affects the area you're currently in.
What goes where?
Which of these updates also reach you by email or push is up to you. You set that in the notification channels. Team invitations and open approval tasks have their own place – more on that under Invitations & approval tasks.
