WitchHazel Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I've just had my first notification for ages. Thanks Tom for passing the message along (am assuming it's related). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmashazzie Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Could a newbie ask what is a notification? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 When you get an email notifying you that there's been a post on a thread you're contributing to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I get them for some and not others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 I get them for some and not others Yes, I think that is what is happening to me. I;m definitely getting them for this topic (which I started), and I *thought* I had got some for a topic where I had participated - but I don't seem to be getting many. I've not had any for yonks now . How did yours come back? I initially PM'd Tom, and he forwarded it to Matt. (However, I don't know which Matt) I;m sure the lack of notifications has contributed to the reduction of activity, so i really hope Omlet fixes it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 On one of the previous versions of the forum, the default used to be set to notify every user of any thread they'd participated in or opted into; that was taken off some time ago - presumably to lighten the load on the server, which would be sending out all the emails) - we now have to opt in by ticking the "Notify me when a reply is posted" box. This hasn't made much of a difference as the notification system was never reliable... I got 3 emails per thread at one stage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I spoke to James about it too. Omlet had changed servers and forgotten to update the notification email so none were getting through. Fixed now I hope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
