Muting topics with #hashtags #hashtagusage #mute


 

Hello

Does anyone know what happens if a topic has several hashtags, including one that a user has muted?
Will that topic still reach them due to the other hashtags? Or will it be muted despite all the other hashtags present?
?
Thanks

It can depend upon the settings/attributes of the other hashtags.? The following applies:
?
#generalhashtag #muted? => no email sent
#generalhashtag #special #muted => email sent as the Special attribute overrides the mute
#generalhashtag #special #noemail? => no email sent as the No Email attribute overrides the Special
?

Simply having other hashtags present does nothing to override a mute, unless those hashtags have properties that also affect email delivery (as Andy noted, #Special is one of them).

If you've followed one hashtag and muted another, and they both appear in the same message, I don't know which takes precedence. I suspect the follow might, because you must currently have your subscription set to "Following Only" for that to even be an option. But I have not switched my subscription options back and forth and fiddled with hashtag settings enough to test this. I suggest you try to break it and let us know what you find out.
