Stay organized with new topic management features

As users create and join more topics, we’re aware that there is a greater need for organizational tools to manage these topics efficiently. To this end, we are introducing a few new features for topic management.

Topic management

We want to make organizing, finding, and using your topics as easy as possible. So we’ve implemented a few new tools to help you.

All topics

At the top of your topic list, you’ll see an icon labeled “All.” This where you can search through every topic you’re currently a member of.

Topic groups

You can then sort the topics you’re a part of into topic groups. If you’re not sure how to group your topics, try organizing them by subject, team, or priority. Simply move topics into topic groups, and you can then swiftly browse new messages in a more organized fashion.

Recently joined

When you join a topic, it will appear here for 7 days. You can pin it, move it to a topic group, or do nothing.

Sort alphabetically

By default, topics are organized by activity in descending order with the last active topic sitting at the top. But some people prefer keeping topics in a specific order, which is why we’re introducing the option to sort the topics in a topic group alphabetically.

Mute

You may find that you have a few topics you like being part of but don’t want to be notified about. Now you can mute topics groups and you’ll no longer receive notifications on the topics within.

Pinned topics

For your most important topics, we’ve introduced a pinning feature. Pinned topics will always appear at the top of your topics list.

Mobile

We realize you’re not always chatting from your desktop, so these features are also available on mobile.

We hope you enjoy all these new ways of managing your topics! Stay tuned as we continue to improve the features you love.
