Where are mentions displayed?

In an opened article, on the Mentions: line at the top, or at the bottom if you moved it, with a count per type. See all lists the names grouped by type, hovering a name shows its card, and each mention also has a page of its own, opened from the name or from View details in the card.

The Mentions line

The line sits between the article's header and its text, or after the text if you moved it to the bottom. It shows the counts per type, for example 2 companies and 1 location. See all opens one row per type with the type's icon and the names as links, and Show less closes it. The three-dot menu at the end of the counts line holds Move mentions to bottom (or Move mentions to top) and Hide mentions, which Can I move or hide mentions in articles? describes.

The line appears only when the article has mentions and you haven't hidden them. Social posts never show it.

  1. Open an article from a feed that has mentions.
  2. Find the Mentions: line under the article's header and click See all.
  3. Hover a name to see its card, or click it to open its page.

The card

Hold the pointer on a name for a moment and its card opens with a short description, the number of articles that named it last week, a trend line and action buttons. Esc closes it. What can I do with a mention? explains the buttons.

The mention page

Clicking a name, or View details in its card, opens the mention's page in the reading panel. The header shows the mention's name with the tabs Coverage and About. On the About tab, Frequently mentioned together lists other mentions as the same hoverable links.

Monitoring feeds, rules and filters

Mentions also appear as suggestions with a type badge and their articles per week when you build a monitoring feed, and as the List of mentions field in rule and filter conditions.

If an article shows no Mentions: line at all, Why are mentions missing from some articles? lists the reasons.

On Free you see the line and the list in every article and can open the card in 3 articles a week, while the card's details and the mention page are part of Pro.
