Hello,
I'm passing along an idea for a feature that would be helpful to have in Canvas: turning on immediate notifications for a *specific* discussion board forum. Right now I have several discussion boards going with lots of chatter. I do not want a notification for all five forums at once - that would be overwhelming; I just want immediate notifications for one of the forums so I can respond to it quickly.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @l5brown
I think this is a great idea for Canvas and future feature requests. I do see how that would be helpful for you as an instructor.
The closest thing I could find to this is the Subscribe feature you can configure on discussions in your courses. HERE is a guide that goes over how that works. Have you submitted that idea yet? HERE a link to the Canvas Ideas page.

That feature would be very helpful for students as well. Will that be an option again?
Thanks! Yeah, I'm automatically subscribed to all the discussion boards I created. Since I have several of them going on at once, I had to adjust my overall notification settings to manage the overload. Thanks for your help!
