I'm Not Receiving Notifications

Have set up my Profile preference to receive email notifications for all new posts, watched posts, replies to posts, etc.

I've posted some replies to some of the topics and asked some questions to which I have received replies and viewed them on the board but I have not received an email notification for any of them.

Admin advised they are in the processing of changing/upgrading the board and I'm wondering if my not receiving notifications is part of the small glitches right now.

Is anyone else experiencing the same?

I'm a newbie here so everything is new - sorry to pester - just wanting to know if it's another one of my "Duh" things.

I just received your answer to my question via email notification - so maybe the "glitch" has sorted itself out.

Will let Gimpy know if I go back to not receiving notifications - but as of your reply, keeping my fingers crossed.

Thanks for your response.

Hi Dragonfly, Id say its a forum glitch, not only are they moving to a whole new data base but they are upgrading to new bigger faster servers too and said they will be odd glitches for a little while. I just lost a whole big long post as when I hit send it asked me to log in and I went around and around the log in cycle 5 times before I got in here, aughhhhh but they promise it will be better, more secure, faster and stronger. We rarely get issues with this company, unlike others in the past where the forum was constantly down and had issues, these guys are pretty good. I will check your acct if I can and see if I can remove the 7 day ban on private message sending for new members, its a security thing the forums have in place to stop people spamming and advertising.

Oh and you are not 'pestering' at all, just makes my day you feel confident enough to ask questions, so often people just get grumpy or frustrated but dont ask for help or whats going on, you make it easy for me!

PS You should be able to send private messages now, I will send you one as a test so if you try and reply to me that would be great.

Beautiful avatar Dragonfly and the mousey is so cute.

Like Helen, I am so happy you are asking for help in navigating. We are always happy to help and it is so nice to have a new member joining in. Anything we can do to help make it easier, please let us know.

PS. At the top on the right hand side there are 3 buttons

Once you get comfortably caught up, the" view posts since last visit" button is the easiest way to catch the newest postings. Its my favorite button, well, second favorite. My favorite is the button to turn on my sewing machine!

I haven't been getting notifications the last few days. Just tells me no new posts when I log in. Thought it would fix itself but no luck. Any ideas?
