Chat replies count isn't included in the global Chat sidebar count
in progress
Janko Januška
Hello, I receive notifications when I'm mentioned in a chat. Unfortunately, this doesn't work within threads. The number of unread messages, such as (5), should be displayed alongside the number of Chats or DMs I've been mentioned in.

Hey guys! 👋
While working on getting the replies count into the global sidebar count for Chat, we're also looking to add the count of replies in the Chat sidebar too!
Do you think the Replies count should be
- The # of mentions you have
- The # of unread threads you have
Let us know what you think! Tagging Janko Januška Elderi Bennett-Horak Liam Miller for your feedback too!

Jackson James
Brendan W number of unread threads, definitely.

Brendan W I’d prefer mentions but that’s because we’re big on tagging in our company so people are directed to the things they need to know and not be bombarded with things they don’t. I don’t mind either way, ultimately just need to know that there are replies there so we know to click through and then you click on the replies tab and see them all anyway.

Brendan W boht would be great! :D

Show the red chat counter bubble for threaded replies

Threaded chat replies don't show the red notification counter bubble icon on the sidebar chat icon (only shows for direct, non-threaded replies). So it's easy to miss threaded replies, unless going into Chat > Replies.

Not receiving a notification badge when someone replies via a thread
Elderi Bennett-Horak
I would like to see a notification badge in my main chat panel, not only when I go into a certain chat. I see you currently show the grey chat bubble, but that doesn't catch my eye, and there is no notification badge in the browser's tab either

Hey, there! Could you give me a video or photos of the issue you're running into?

Hey Janko Januška! Just to clarify, you're not missing the actual notification, correct? Just that the count of the badge in your left sidebar only reflects mentions on a Chat or DMs, and any threaded reply notifications require you to visit the "Replies" page in Chat?
Janko Januška
Brendan W Hello, Exactly Brendan. I have to open the chat to see the new replies. Additionally, new messages in "Replies" are not very noticeable at first glance because they are only highlighted with subtle bold text.
Brendan W
Janko Januška: We're fixing this very soon! I've updated the title of your feature request as well :)
Janko Januška
Brendan W Amazing, thanks a lot :)

Brendan W I am also not getting notifications on replies (or actual chats) do the global settings override the chat specific notification settings?
Glad to see this is being addressed, chat feature is great but I keep missing replies.
