2. Recent activity


The page "Recent activity", accessed from the "My Space" menu keeps track of:

- Everything that has happened in your space: comments made, answers to your own comments, tags added, docs marked as 'favorite', your most recent visitors...

and also,

- your own activity in the spaces of others.

3. Tracking comments


You can easily follow, and in real time, comments left in your space, as well as the comments you leave and also responses from members on the "Activity" page ("My Space" menu)

Comments in your space

By clicking on the tab "In your space", you can see all the comments members have left for you.

Your comments in the spaces of others
The comments which you write in other members' spaces are grouped together under "Your comments". This tab also allows you to see comments left after your own comment. To stop following a thread of comments, click on "[x] do not follow anymore" under the thumbnail of the doc.

Replies to your comments

To see only the replies to your comments, click on "Your comments" and then on "Direct replies only" (top right).

There is also a comments RSS feed which you can subscribe to at the bottom left of the page to follow comments without logging on to ipernity.

TIP: Develop the habit of using the "reply" link when replying to a comment. That way the member will know that you've answered !

4. The summary email

A summary of the latest regarding the members of your network is sent to you by email. You are informed of:

- birthdays to be wished
- the latest visits to your space,

- the latest docs, albums and posts posted...

It's up to you to decide whether or not you want to receive the summary and to choose how frequently: in your email notification preferences.

6. RSS feeds


RSS feeds are another way of keeping informed. Once you've subscribed to a feed, you will receive the latest posts (blog posts, photos, videos, music...) from a member, a group, or the whole of ipernity, without having to log on to the site.
You can also follow the activity in your space or the responses to your comments.
The RSS feeds are available on most pages for each user as well as on the latest publications, for public documents.
