Using comments and mentions to keep work moving

Comments in Tideflow help your team stay aligned by keeping conversations tied to the work itself. Use comments and mentions to discuss tasks, share updates, and loop in the right people at the right time.

Adding a comment to a task

1. Open a task.
2. Scroll to the Comments section.
3. Type your message and click Post.

All project members can view and respond to comments.

Mentioning teammates

1. In a comment, type @ and begin typing the teammate’s name.
2. Select them from the dropdown.
3. They’ll get a notification and can jump directly to the task.

You can mention multiple teammates in one comment.

Comment visibility

• Comments are visible to everyone with access to the task.
• For private discussions, use task-specific permissions or create a separate private task.

Best practices

• Use comments for updates, clarifications, and decisions.
• Mention only those who need to act or be informed.
• Keep comments clear and concise to reduce notification fatigue.
