What it does
Threadwork gives you two undeletable default tag categories — Priority and Status — plus the ability to add your own. On posts, you can add an emoji reaction, give kudos to recognise great work, or raise a flag to surface a concern.
Where to find it
- Reactions, kudos and flags are under every post in a thread's conversation.
- Apply tags to a thread from the tag row beneath its title.
- Manage tags at Settings → Tags (
/dashboard/settings/tags). - Default tags (Priority, Status) are seeded for your team automatically.
Step by step
React to a post
- Open a thread and find a post in the conversation.
- Click 👍 to react, Award to give kudos, or Flag to raise a concern.
- Click again to remove it.
Tag a thread
- Open a thread. Under the title, click the dashed + Tag chip.
- Pick tags from any category; click a tag again to remove it. Applied tags show as coloured chips.
Tag a post
- In a thread's conversation, each post has its own dashed + Tag chip under it.
- Add tags to a post the same way — useful for marking a post to include in a report, or flagging it
as "Requires Response". Post tags are independent of the thread's tags.
Filter a board by tag
- On a project board, the tags in use appear as filter chips in the toolbar, each with a count.
- Click one or more to show only threads carrying those tags. Click Clear to reset.
Manage tag categories and tags
- Go to Settings → Tags.
- Add a category (name + colour), then add tags to it (name + colour).
- For a user category, add a tag by picking a person.
- Remove a tag with its ✕, or delete a whole category. The built-in Priority and Status
categories are locked and can't be deleted.
What each screen shows
- Reaction row — the three reaction buttons under each post, each showing a count and highlighting when you've reacted.
- Thread tag row — the thread's current tags plus a + Tag picker grouped by category.
- Board toolbar — tag filter chips with live counts.
- Settings → Tags — every category with its tags, add/remove controls, and a "New category" form.
Tips
- Kudos and Flags notify the post's author, so recognition and concerns both get seen.
- The default Priority and Status categories can't be deleted, so everyone shares the same labels.
- Use a user category for tags like
Requires-Response-<name>tied to a specific person.
Troubleshooting
- Reaction didn't stick? Reactions toggle — clicking the same one again removes it.
- Can't delete Priority/Status? They're built-in defaults and are locked on purpose; you can still edit their tags.
