Notifications Of Posting Replies

[caughtintheact]

I haven't received an email notification of replies to postings for ages. I have the correct email address in my controls and have enabled email notification of replies, but am getting nothing. Anyone else having the same problem?

Thanks for heads up. I will ask Huski to take a look at the problem.

Moving this thread to Forum Support.

Just tested the notifications, and I am getting them. Please double check the Subscription settings in your forum Control Panel.

George,

I'm subscribed to a number of topics, but I did not subscribe to any forums.

I checked my email notification address and it is correct.

Under Board Preferences, I have all three boxes checked, i.e.,

Include a copy of the post when emailing me from a subscribed topic

Enabling this option will send a plain text version of the post in the subscription email.

Send a confirmation email when I receive a new private message

Enabling this option will send an email confirmation of any new private messages sent to you.

Enable 'Email Notification' by default?

Enabling this option will automatically subscribe you to any topic you start or reply to.

Under board settings I changed the time to local time.

I posted to two or three topics today, including this one but did not get any notifications. I had to view new posts to see your reply.

Maybe they are in your spam folder. We have no other reports of problems with the notfication emails.

This help file might be of help:

My ethailand mail has no spam box and no filters set up. Everything I get comes into the inbox.

I checked the help file as you recommended and I have everything set up properly to receive notifications. I do receive notifications of the most recent postings and news items, but not notifications of replies to postings.

The only thing I have not been doing is Clicking the 'Track This Topic' link and I didn't think I had to do this because I have notifications by default checked under Board Preferences.

At the bottom of this composition I can see "You are currently receiving email notification of replies"

But I am still not getting anything

Since making sure that I changed all my settings to receive notifications, including clicking on the track item link for a few topics, I still have not received any notifications. So I requested that I be sent a copy of my password. After waiting for almost 4 hours, I still have not received the password. I tested my email address by requesting a change to the same email address, and was told that it was already in the database. So my email address is correct - I typed it in rather than pasting it).

I am receiving news items like farang photos and other news, but nothing on replies to topics. I am also receiving email at my email address from other sources. I sent an email to myself and it was in my ethailand mail in about 10 seconds. I probably not get a notification of making this post either. Any other solutions?

Here's some more information to try to solve this problem:

On the page Welcome to your control panel

Current Subscriptions

I can see the topics I am subscribed to.

On the page that shows which forums I am subscribed to it shows that I am not subscribed to any forums (I really only want to get replies to new posats on specific topics. For example at the bottom of this page it says "You are currently receiving email notification of replies", but I am not.

On the page "Welcome to your control panel", under Board Preferences

The following items are checked:

Include a copy of the post when emailing me from a subscribed topic

Enabling this option will send a plain text version of the post in the subscription email.

Send a confirmation email when I receive a new private message

Enabling this option will send an email confirmation of any new private messages sent to you.

Enable 'Email Notification' by default?

Enabling this option will automatically subscribe you to any topic you start or reply to.

I was going to contact ethailand, but first I want to be sure that I have the correct settings to get notified.

Does a click on "Track this topic" mean I will get notifications? I have not been doing this (except once recently which still did not get me notifications by email)

I get mine as long as I tick the box for email notification of replies in post options.

Hello Dr.

I do that for every post I make, but it doesn't work either. I really don't know what else to try.

At the bottom of this post it says:

You are currently receiving email notification of replies

but I never got notified of your post either. I just keep thie page in my browser so it opens every time I connect to see if there are any solutions.

Change to another email? Do you want to have a Gmail account? 1 Gigabyte storage!

[caughtintheact]

I was hoping to avoid that as I already have more email sites to check than I have time for, but I got another account which I will change now.

[caughtintheact]

OK, the new one is working, so I guess this topic can be closed
