content that exists in multiple communities
If the item of content exists in multiple communities you are currently a member of, you will be prompted to select the community in which your comment will be visible. This ensures that the comment is visible to the correct community and is understood in the right context. The comment is only visible in the selected community and cannot be seen in the other communities.
To post the comment:
Scroll down to the Comments tab.
Click inside the write a comment... field.
A popup appears where you must select the community in which your comment will be visible. Select a community from the list and click Confirm.
For example, an item of content might be available to users in two communities - the ‘Fire Safety’ and ‘Health & Safety’ communities. Selecting ‘Fire Safety’, means that the comment will only be visible to users who are members of the Fire Safety community. You can only post a comment to one community at a time. If you wish to post the same comment to additional communities in the list, you must repost the same comment in those communities separately.
In the Write a comment... field, enter your comment.
[Optional] To mention a user in the comment:
In the Write a comment... field, type the @ sign and a list of users appears.
