How Do I Turn On Reply Notification ??
« on: August 31, 2020, 07:49:02 AM »
I used to receive reply notifications to threads I've posted in here. But I no longer do. What, (and more importantly HOW), do I turn them on again? I can't seem to find a box to check in, "My Profile"... Or anywhere else.

Did you check in "Profile"  under "Account Settings" ?

Gmail might block emails from the forum.

I will check on my end.

I thought I wanted a 2nd e mail account .
G-Mail taught me I didn't want one THAT bad.

Right at the top of every thread is a box marked "notify"....but it only works for that single thread. I can't remember where the master switch is.

**EDIT**

Go to 'Profile' and there are three options top right just above your profile info marked as "Profile Info" "Modify Profile" and "Actions".

If you hover your mouse over "Modify Profile" there is a list of options and about halfway down is "Notifications".
When you click on that, it opens the page where you can check the box to receive notifications as well as other options.

OK. I did that, and now there is a blue checkmark by, "Turn Notification On When You Post Or Reply To A Topic." I also changed, "Request Notification Change", to "Instantly". And also the box below it is now set to, "Replies & Moderation". The blue checkmark was there, but I reset it anyway. So we'll see what happens. Thanks!

No, I'm still not getting anything. I get notifications from other sites. So I don't think it's my G-Mail account.

I just checked all of my settings on my G-Mail account, and didn't find anything. I did change my, "Desktop Notifications" to, "New E-Mail Notifications On". And I moved the forum shortcut to the desktop bar at the top of my screen. I don't know if that will do anything, but I can't think of anything else to try. You guys may be right. It just doesn't like G-Mail.
