Discuss a card with comments
last updated at: Jun 8, 2026
Every card on a Stickies board has a built-in comment thread. You can use it to ask questions, post updates, or keep a record of decisions, all in one place alongside the card itself.
Open a card's comment thread
- Click the card you want to discuss. The card dialog opens.
- The comment thread is in the lower half of the dialog. You can read all previous messages there.
- Type your message in the Reply... box at the bottom, then press Enter to send it.
You can also open the thread from the context menu: right-click any card and choose View sticky.
Reply count
When a card has at least one message, a small reply count appears at the bottom of the card face, for example "3 replies". This lets you see at a glance which cards have active discussion without opening them.
Who can comment
Anyone who has access to the board can read the comment thread. To send a message you need write access to the board. If you only have view access, the input area shows "You have read-only access to this chat" and no send box appears.
See Share a board and manage access for how to adjust who can view or edit a board.
Share a link to a specific card
To send someone directly to a card's thread, open the card and click the link icon (Copy link) in the card header. Eigen copies a link to your clipboard. Anyone with access to the board can open that link and land straight on the card.
