Title: No notifications?
Post by: rif on October 04, 2015, 06:33:04 AM

I recently  (past few weeks) received a PM.  There was also a post right after my post in a thread.  I didn't receive an email notification for either (and they didn't go to spam).

Forgive me if this is really obvious, but I'm not very knowledgeable on this type of thing.

Have you gotten these notifications in the past?

Go to "profile/account settings"
On the page that loads, check the e-mail address. Is that the one where you are expecting notifications?
If not, change it and you're done.

If it is, then hover your pointer over the Modify Profile button. From there you can select the notifications or PM screens, and adjust the settings to your liking.

I have received notifications in the past, but I haven't been very active recently.

Under profile of rif/modify profile/account settings, the email is correct.

Under modify profile/notifications, everything looks correct (1st 3 items are checked, next  is "instant but first reply only", last is "replies and moderation"

Gmail

I just updated the time offset, maybe that will help.
