It would be nice if users could get a badge or counter with the new notifications (similar to new private messages counter). This could be added to the theme with a php function from the module and, once loaded the mentions page in the user profile, the counter would be cleared.

Sounds like a great idea.

Will look into it when I have some time.

Cheers,

A good way for doing this would be saving the timestamp in the variables table every time the user visits the mentions page/view. Then the counter function will count mentions newer than that timestamp.

Any plans for implementing this?

Moving this to 7.x-1.x as I still think this is a good idea.

1) Thank you all for keeping on top of this module, which I am just beginning to dabble in.

2) Huge +1 for this feature

3) Anything I can do to help? I'm a bit slow writing things from scratch, but very good at cleaning up and adopting examples. Could we borrow from the message module's counter function for this? Simple view using default "new" functionality? Is that even a thing? Just curious, and happy to pitch in if I can.

Currently, the comments have own counter, so maybe function comment_num_new may help you.
