The Community Notes module for HumHub enables administrators and authorized groups to add community notes to user posts. This feature functions similarly to fact-checking systems on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook, allowing the community to provide additional context and information on potentially misleading or incomplete content.

Features

• Allow admins and/or specific groups with permissions to add community notes.
• Display fact-check-style notes at the bottom of a user’s post.
• Configurable permissions for which users or groups can contribute notes.
• Supports different alert types (success, warning, danger, info).
• Integrated UI elements for adding and displaying community notes.
• Seamlessly integrates with HumHub's existing post system.

Usage

Adding a Community Note

1. Navigate to a post within your HumHub community.
2. If you have the necessary permissions, click the "Add Community Note" button.
3. Enter your note, providing relevant context or corrections.
4. Choose an alert type (Success, Warning, Danger, Info, or No Alert).
5. Submit the note to be displayed beneath the original post.

Viewing Community Notes

• Community notes will appear below posts where applicable.
• If a note has an alert type, it will be visually highlighted.

Configuration

Permissions
