Jeffds1360 Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Are emails still being sent out when followed posts receive new content? I have them set up but not had any for weeks. I now need to search in 'recent posts' unread. Might be me brain still a bit 'fuzzy' !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffds1360 Posted August 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Does nobody use 'follow this post'? Or am I being ignored for some misdemeanor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffds1360 Posted August 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 OK guys and thanks. I'm a bit up and down just now but if I see a post that looks like it may get interesting, or provide useful information, I open the 'follow' box and ask for a daily email with a list of new replies. I used to get them Not had any for a few weeks so I have taken to all 'unread posts' but tend to run out of steam before the end on a busy day Hey ho. Seeing oncologist on 13th so maybe get treatment to help me concentrate more ATB. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Lewis Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 people keep using my Ring door bell its useless when the phones switched off in the drawer but it saves making them any tea !!! strangely there are two other bell pushes that work its not rocket science or is it the ring thing does record the Cats and the passing bus but as a door bell its useless on its own you can hear its ring outside which is a bit daft when they know their out there trying to get your attention who said dinosaurs are extinct Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been running a test for a couple of days and its all working for me. All I can suggest is switching it off and switching it on again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffds1360 Posted August 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 OK Kev. Cheers. If I do trawl through the unread posts, there will be nothing new! ?? Unless it is an old post resurrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffds1360 Posted September 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2022 Still not getting notifications of new posts when I have 'ticked the box' Maybe I have accidentally removed or unticked something in my profile?? Brain is not 100% just now due to meds. but happy for a moderator to have a look. Nothing to hide, nothing to find Unread posts search can be daunting!....... well, after a long weekend it can be! ATB all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 Jeff, It don't work too well! I'm getting a notification, now an then, I estimate it's a VERY low % of what's actually happening. A job for Tom Hartley to sort out I suspect!

Jeffds1360 Posted December 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 Ah! Doug, I forgot to report back and advise all is well now .... ??? I seem to be getting notification of the new posts I have marked and also 'streaming' posts. No idea what they are. I still trawl 'unread' on occasion Have a good one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinR Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 As far as I can see, there is nothing wrong on the Forum side. Any failure to receive notifications is on the user side. Usually caused by over aggressive email filtering by the users email provider. Check your spam filter settings with your email account, you will probably find the spam folder full of notifications that never arrived. To ensure that notifications get through, add the email address they come from into the email "white list". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an issue with some email providers (BTconnect in particular) who filtered out any invision emails before being delivered. Virgin went through a phase as well. But at the moment all is OK. It may depend who this website is "bundled" with by invision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
