User Feed

The user feed is designed to help you keep close tabs on your important cases and their progress. Think of the user feed as your personal inbox in Filevine.

Your feed includes any updates to tasks, notes, text messages, and email activity items as well as deadline reminders on projects where you are subscribed, along with relevant updates in projects where you are a collaborator or Admin.

Update Alerts

If you are subscribed to a project, you will receive an update alert in your feed for all activity feed items and replies to those items.

If you are a collaborator or an Admin in a project, but you are not subscribed, you will receive updates on your feed whenever:

• you are tasked on an item
• a reply is added to an item that has been tasked to you
• you are mentioned on an item or reply
• a reply is added to an item that has mentioned you
• you receive a text response from a text item that you sent

Items in your user feed will appear as they would in the project’s activity feed. The number of replies will appear next to the item’s icon, and in the item’s flyout.

Dismiss an Item

To remove a new item from your feed and mark it as seen, click the checkmark icon in the top right corner on that item.

​

The item will then disappear and not re-appear in your feed unless it is updated. Dismissing an item from your feed does not affect the item in the project or in other users’ feed. 

Manage Your Feed

When you receive a new notification in your user feed, you can manage the item and replies the same way you would in a project’s Activity Feed. You can add replies, complete tasks, respond to text messages, etc. from your user feed without entering the project. 

If you would like to go to a project from your feed, click the project's name.

Card, Condensed, and List View

The user feed has three different views: card view, condensed view, and list view. You can switch between these views at any time. These viewing options are also available for the Activity Feed and task page, and whatever setting you choose for one page will be applied to the other two pages as well. 

To switch between views, use the buttons in the top right corner. Learn more about the differences between each view.

Quick Filters

On the left side of the feed, you can filter based on either unread items, or recent activity. Select Unread to display any items that you have not dismissed yet. Select My Recent Activity to display any items updated in the last seven days, including both read and unread items.

The lefthand side menu also has a list of the different activity item types. Select an item to filter the feed by that type. Each item type displays a count of their respective unread items.

Additional Filters

You can also search and manage your user feed items by clicking the Filter button above the feed.

Filter by:

• type of activity item
• pinned or unpinned items
• created by
• created date
• tags

Task items can additionally be filtered by:

• incomplete or complete
• assigned to
• assigned by
• completed by
• due date

Filters can be stacked. To remove a single filter, click the x in that filter tag. To remove all filters, click Clear Filters. Filters are removed when you refresh or navigate away from the user feed.
