Email Notification?

[AJeepZJ]

Noticed my phone has got a lot quieter lately. Thread subscriptions use to shoot straight to my email and id get a notification of on my phone. I restored default settings under,my profile but still not getting email from replies on this forum - is this another consequence of switching hosts?

[Matt]

Did you change all of your thread subscription settings to "instant email"?

[AJeepZJ]

Yea

[IamJEEP]

Same problem here....

Well this I don't know how to fix but it's still coming threw on my phone threw tapatalk app.

I think I have mine set to " Daily notification ", and I also do not get notified. But I might have something else set wrong ?

[Matt]

I just changed my setting for this thread.... lets see what happens.

Ok go to your subscription folder then click the box in the upper right hand corner so it checks all the boxes on your subscribed thread. Go all the way to the bottom and click the select thread drop down box. Click your option I chose instant email then in the same box on the bottom click the go button. Hopefully that fixes the problem.

Thats what I did. No email received when you posted..... interesting

Checked my spam folder too

Hey Matt did you get an email notification when I sent you a PM? I can't remember now if i did.

[Matt]

Good point... i havent received email notification from any PMs either...

Ok then its with the system for sure darn it. Hopefully an easy and crossing fingers a cheap fix! It's weird my tapatalk is pushing notifications to my phone so that's working.

Matt shoot me a PM and drop a reply in my garage so I can see if my changes worked Thanks bro!

[Matt]

Did it work?

[Sal-XK]

Did it work?

No it didn't :(

[Matt]

I'm sure its a simple one...

I check the site so often I didnt even notice though lol

[1USMC]

Mmm.. I still haven't received any e-mail notifications to my subscriptions ( of course it could always be me Lol). I also went to my profile and looked under " activity " to find a post I made earlier.. it looks like before around the first of Aug. 2012 they no longer show.. think'n due to the new host ? I might try to edit my post to see if it will show up under the activity tab .. ??

[Matt]

Looks like there's a simple solution:

[Matt]

This one may be more applicable... same version software and it was just a setting change:

I hope some of that above will help those that know how to utilize those recommendations.. I must admit.. I did, just for the heck of it, triple check my junk mail... nothing from the Forum.. But.. I did find a very important e-mail (and one not so ..) in my junk mail, that I had been waiting for !! Thanks Matt !! <<<.>>> ;-)

[Sal-XK]

Ya the web guy needs to get it fixed but I feel it should be covered in the initial cost of switching servers.

[Matt]

LMAO glad you found an important email there.

And yeah, Jon will probably have to pass this stuff on to his "web guy" to get it fixed. It's nothing we can do (though maybe jon can if its simple enough)

[Matt]

.....so mine started working (at least the PM's did). anyone elses?

Mine started working also !!! :) :)

[Core XK]

My PM's did and sometimes the thread responses

[1USMC]

Mine started working also !!! :) :)

OK..mine (e-mail notifications ) stopped working again !!! Just me ?? :( :(

[Matt]

Well considering I'm subscribed to this thread with instant notification turned on..... and didn't get an email, its not just you.

[1USMC]

Bump...

I'm still not getting any e-mail notifications.. just me ? Do I need to reset something ??

[Matt]

Not just you. Im just an addict and check the site so often I dont even notice the emails dont work.

So you guys have it set to send you an e-mail if a thread is posted in but are not receiving the e-mails?

[1USMC]

............ but are not receiving the e-mails?

I haven't received an e-mail update for threads I'm signed up for sense Oct -12 ish. Sometimes I'm not on for long periods of time.. other's ( like lately) I have been able to get on the forum more often. The e-mail notifications would help me .. ( and I always need all the help I can get !!!).

[LWM]

This might have been a side effect of switching hosts, have you tried new subscriptions?

[1USMC]

....., have you tried new subscriptions?

I just signed up for 3 new ones. I'll let you know how it works out....

[1USMC]

Just an update FYI.... I just started receiving e-mail notifications the last few days . Thanks to whoever may have put the work into making that happen again ! ;-)
