Monthly Engagement Overview With The FastComments Digest

Want a regular reminder of comments that may need attention, without receiving emails every hour?

Now you can! As part of this rollout by default, all site owners and moderators will receive the FastComments Digest monthly, starting in June.

To opt out or to configure the frequency, go to My Account -> Notifications.

From there, under Digest Schedule, you can choose an option like Weekly or Disabled and hit save.

In terms of what to expect in the email - our goal was to include two things.

Engagement Metrics

The FastComments Digest includes counts for New Comments, New Users, and New Spam. All of these metrics are relative to when the last digest email was sent.

Each metric also includes an up or down arrow to indicate the change since the last email.

Recent Comments

The Digest email includes up to three recent comments that can be directly approved or responded to by clicking buttons in the email. Approving from this email also marks comments as reviewed. Right now, this email is static - however, we have a surprise coming in a future release!

Show it to me

Like the rest of FastComments, the Digest email is light, easy to read, and very functional.

In Conclusion

We hope you find this scheduled email a useful and friendly reminder of comments that may require approval. We also hope that if you decide not to use this feature, you find it easy to disable.

If you find something missing from this email, or if you have compatibility issues with your email client, please reach out to your customer service representative.
