Discussions

Not every conversation belongs in a channel. When feedback is about a specific play, drill, practice plan, document, or event, UltiStackr lets you post it as a comment directly on that content — so the discussion lives right next to the thing it’s about instead of getting buried in team chat.

What Can Have a Discussion

Any team-owned content can host a comment thread:

  • Plays and playbooks
  • Drills
  • Practice plans
  • Season overviews and season plan templates
  • Documents
  • Notes
  • Schedule events
  • Shared conditioning posts (opening one from Discussions switches to the Feed and scrolls to and highlights the post; tap it to open the full thread)

Only team content gets threads. Your personal plays, drafts, and public share/embed links don’t have comments.

Starting and Viewing a Thread

For drills, practice plans, the season overview, season plan templates, documents, and notes, a Comments section sits at the bottom of the content’s detail screen, with a running count (e.g. “Comments 4”). For plays and playbooks, where the viewer doesn’t have room for an inline section, comments open in a Comments panel from the viewer’s toolbar instead.

A thread doesn’t exist until the first comment is posted — until then you’ll see “No comments yet. Start the discussion for your team.”

Posting a Comment

  1. Open the content and find its Comments section or panel.
  2. Type in the Add a comment box.
  3. Send it.

Each comment shows its author and a relative timestamp, and an “edited” label if it’s been changed. Top-level comments have a Reply link for one level of replies — you can reply to a comment, but not to a reply.

Permissions

Thread visibility always follows the content’s own access rules: if you can see the play, drill, or plan, you can see and post in its thread. You can edit your own comments at any time. Deleting works a little differently:

  • Anyone can delete their own comment.
  • Coaches, managers, and owners can delete any comment on their team’s content, for moderation.

Deleting a top-level comment also removes its replies.

Reacting to Comments

Comments take emoji reactions just like chat messages: tap the Add reaction button on a comment and pick an emoji. Tap an existing reaction to add or remove your own; long-press it to see who reacted.

Notifications

Posting a comment notifies the content’s other participants and its creator. Replying also notifies the author of the comment you replied to. Tapping a comment notification takes you straight to the content’s detail screen.

The Discussions View

To see everything happening across your team’s content in one place, open Discussions from the sidebar in team chat, next to your channel list.

Discussions shows:

  • A row of filter chips — All, Plays, Playbooks, Drills, Practice Plans, Seasons, Season Plans, Documents, Notes, Events
  • A list of threads across the whole team, each showing the content’s name, its type, the latest comment’s author and a short snippet, and how many comments and how recently

Tap any row to jump straight to that content and its thread.

Unread Threads

Discussion threads now track what you haven’t read yet, the same way chat channels do:

  • Each thread with unread comments shows an unread badge in the Discussions list.
  • The Discussions entry in the team chat sidebar shows a combined count across every thread with unread activity.
  • Opening a thread (or posting in it) marks it read and clears its badge.

Check Discussions before practice the same way you’d check Announcements — it’s the fastest way to catch feedback on a play or drill that didn’t make it into the group chat.
