Global notification settings
Your global settings control email notifications across all projects. To access them:
- Click your name or avatar at the bottom of the sidebar.
- Select Account.
- Scroll to the Email notifications section.
There are three toggles:
| Toggle | What it does |
|---|---|
| New replies & mentions | Sends an email when someone replies to your comment or @mentions you anywhere in your workspace. |
| New comments digest | Sends a periodic digest of new comments on projects you are a member of. |
| Product tips & updates | Occasional emails from Huddlekit about new features and tips. |
All three are on by default. These are master switches — turning one off here disables it across every project.
Per-project notification settings
You can mute notifications for individual projects without touching your global settings. Open a website project or document, click the Huddlekit menu in the top-left of the toolbar, and find the Notifications section.
For a web app, the toggles live in the widget instead: open your own site with the widget while signed in, click the Huddlekit menu in the widget's toolbar, and open Notifications. The web app's board does not have them.
Either way, there are two toggles:
- Replies & mentions — for replies and mentions on this project only.
- New comments — for the new comments digest on this project only.
Per-project options are only available if the matching global toggle is on. If the global toggle is off, the per-project option is disabled.
This lets you stay subscribed to active projects while silencing ones you no longer need to follow.
What triggers a notification
| Event | Who gets notified | Controlled by |
|---|---|---|
| Someone replies to your comment | You (the comment author) | New replies & mentions |
| Someone @mentions you | You (the mentioned user) | New replies & mentions |
| A new comment is added to a project | Workspace members on that project | New comments digest |
There are no notifications for comment status changes.
Guest notifications
Guests who leave feedback through a share link or web app widget do not have notification settings. Whether they receive emails depends entirely on whether they provided an email address when they commented:
- With an email address — guests receive reply and mention notifications automatically.
- Without an email address — no notifications are sent.
