Notify me of replies does not seem to work

[Boindil Lego]

Hi, i always set the button "Notify me of replies" on green. But i almost never get a notification when someone replies. Anyone an idea what i`m doing wrong? Thanks!

Oh and is there a button where you can see an example of you`re messages before you post it? I only see the big red button "Submit Topic".  Another thanks!

What kind of notifications are you expecting?  You mean an Email or a push notification?  I.e. a notification which appears in the bell dropdown next to the messages dropdown in the top-right.

This functionality was available in earlier versions of Invision PowerBoard but there isn't currently an option to preview posts prior to submitting.

Ok, let's not quote each other.  I've switched on Notify me of replies so let's see what happens.

 

[Boindil Lego]

Ok testing 1...2...3... . I had it switched on, but I didn't get a notify when you sent your reply.

[Mister Phes]

I have received an Email notification of updates to this topic.

So therefore the functionality is intended to produce an Email notification rather than a push notification.

 

[Boindil Lego]

Oh ok. That explains it. Thanks!

[Mister Phes]

But are you receiving Email notifications each time I respond to this topic?

The frequency of those Emails will vary depending upon the settings in your account.

[Boindil Lego]

No i do not. It's set on 1 mail per day.

So now we default to basic troubleshooting...

Can you confirm:

• Is the Email address in your Eurobricks account settings the same Email address you're expecting to receive the notification Emails?
• Have you checked your spam/junk Email folder?
• Have you been receiving other Emails from Eurobricks?  E.g. when someone sends you a Private Message, are you getting Email notifications for those?
