Frequently asked questions

Reading

How do I open a News article?

Open News from the comrce logo at the very top of the left sidebar. Then select Open at the bottom right of the article’s card. The whole article opens in a window over the feed.

How do I close an article and get back to the list?

Select the cross at the top right of the article window, press Esc, or select anywhere outside the window. The article closes, and the News feed is shown again.

Why is the article in English when I use comrce Hub in German?

comrce writes each article in one language and translates it. Without a published translation into your comrce Hub language, the article window shows the original language.

Can I still read an article after comrce archived it?

Yes. Archived articles leave the main feed but stay readable. Open them under Archive in the News feed, under Favorites if you starred them, or through a saved link.

Favorites

Is the star in the article the same as the star on the card?

Yes. Both mark the same article as your favorite. Setting the star with Add to favorites in the article window fills the star on the card too. The article then moves to the top of the feed.

Who can see that I added an article to my favorites?

Nobody else. Favorites are stored for your user only. They change only the order of your own feed and your own Favorites view.

How do I send an article to a colleague?

With the article open, copy the address from your browser’s address bar. Send it by email or chat. Your colleague opens it and sees the same article in comrce Hub after signing in.

No. The link opens the article inside comrce Hub. The reader needs a comrce Hub account and has to sign in. Without one, the link leads to the sign-in page.

Why does a shared link open an empty window?

The window stays empty when the article is not available to the reader. For example, comrce has not published it yet or has removed it. Ask the sender to check that it still opens for them, and look for the article in the News feed.
