Skillhive Notifications

All user-related notifications are displayed in the Notifications view within the service.

Notifications are generated, for example, when:

  • You are invited to a swarm
  • Someone comments in a swarm you are a member of
  • Someone replies to your comment
  • Someone likes your comment
  • Someone recommends your skill
  • Your application (e.g. training request) is processed

Notifications are always visible in the system regardless of email notification settings.

Personal Notification Settings

You can manage your settings via:

Settings → Notifications

You can define:

  • Which events trigger email notifications
  • Whether you want notifications when:
  • You are invited to a swarm
  • Someone comments in a swarm you are a member of
  • Someone replies to your comment
  • Notification preferences by swarm type

If you do not want email notifications, simply uncheck the relevant option.

Swarm and Skill Following

Regardless of general settings, you can:

  • Follow an individual swarm via the Follow button
  • Follow a specific skill from the skill page

Following ensures you receive notifications related to that specific swarm or skill.

Email Summary Frequency

You can define how often you receive email summaries:

  • Daily
  • Weekly
  • Never

Email summaries consolidate multiple notifications into one message.

Browser Notifications

You can allow Skillhive to display browser notifications.
