The Notification Center
The Notification Center is your own feed of things that concern you across the suite. In VNCboard it lives behind Notifications in the account menu; the badge on that item shows how many are unread.
What you are notified about
Section titled “What you are notified about”VNCboard tells you when a board needs your attention, and never when the action was your own:
| Event | You are told |
|---|---|
| A board is shared with you | Shared with you: |
| You are mentioned on a board | You were mentioned in |
| A share link is created on a board you own | Share link created: |
Two rules always hold:
- You never get a notification for your own action. If you share, mention or create a link, others are told — not you.
- Mentions are written in board text as
@person:<id>(a bare@<id>also counts), so the person on the other end sees a mention rather than a plain name.
Open it
Section titled “Open it”- Select the avatar in the top bar.
- Select Notifications. The feed opens, newest first.
Each row shows the product it came from and a title; selecting it opens the item — a board notification takes you straight to that board.
Push notifications
Section titled “Push notifications”You can also receive board notifications as push notifications on your device via the per-user ntfy topic. Push notifications are delivered through Web Push and appear in your device’s notification tray.
Mark as read
Section titled “Mark as read”- Opening the feed lets you act on individual items.
- Mark all read clears the unread badge across the products you are entitled to.
Privacy
Section titled “Privacy”Your feed is private to you: a notification belongs to exactly one recipient, and a person can only ever read or clear their own rows. Nothing in the feed is visible to anyone else, and it holds no board content — only a short title and, for a board, a link to it.
