Private message notifications after forum upgrade, seriously? :p

I apologize to the 80, lol, who has PM’ed me after the forum upgrade, but how can you expect someone to notice that tiny number? :slight_smile:

Is there a way to make it more visible? Or perhaps email notification? Didn’t we have that with the old forum?

Yes, email notification works. (Usually.) Turn it on in your general settings.

Ahh, thanks.

I skimmed through the settings and thought it was enabled, but there was a seperate setting for PM’s. Also interested in seeing what the popup notification does. :slight_smile:

80!? Wow :smile: The highest I’ve had at any time is… one. I’m so unloved.

Aww, I made myself sad.

Stopped working for me yesterday. Seems to be a chronic problem for some of us (well, for me at least).

80 was apparently all the PM’s in my inbox, so don’t feel sad, Frank. Only 5 of them were new. :slight_smile:

For some reason they were all marked as unread.

Lucky me as I would have felt like I had to answer all of them.

My notifications have been broke for a while now, I blame modern technology.

I also don’t like that you:

a) have to specify that you want a copy of your private messages saved to your sent messages now.
b) can’t add attachments to private messages anymore.

Hey Zumwalt, I wonder if you’re having the same problem I am. Email notifications seem to break about once a week and lasts 2-4 days. Then suddenly (and randomly) works again for another 2-4 days. Is that what’s happening to you?

I’ve experienced my e-mail notifications doing this, suddenly I notice the lack of Unity updates and manually check the forums to find out they have stopped sending through only to have them start working again =S
