D.I. Joe Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 To whom it may concern - Mods/Admin?? Although my account settings have not changed, I have not received any notifications at all in the last week, despite the threads themselves being updated. I had a few days of inactivity, could it be related to that, or might it be something else? Cheers Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 No problem here. Have you checked your spam filter? Its setup may have been changed automatically, without you realising, if you updated your AV or similar. Also check that your ISP isn't blocking BC emails as spam directly on their servers, before they even reach your own spam filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.I. Joe Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 Thanks bluejay but I do not receive notifications via email anyway so no problem there! I'm referring to the notification list on my profile itself, but oddly I did receive a notification for this reply... I guess it must just be because I had a few days of silence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Ah, apologies, got your problem wrong. Weird glitch, then. Still, this site does seem to behave oddly at times, especially late at night (US time - morning to early afternoon here) - probably due to patches being applied or maintenance being performed when the traffic on the host servers is at its lowest.

Hamster Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 The website runs auto-maintenance every night around 1 to 3 am GMT but I am aware of a glitch in the basic forum software that can also cause this. I hope the issue is addressed in the next software patch/fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacqueslemac Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I have just noticed a complete lack of notifications too. I checked a couple of threads I've been subscribed to for ages (post your pictures... and Precisions) only to find that I'm no longer following them. When I click on "follow topic" it gives me the usual options, but after I've ticked one they still don't appear in my list of topics I'm following in my "contents" section.

Shambo Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I've had no notifications randomly too. Also the sales thread I created recently didn't appear in 'My Content', but then showed up after a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydentaku Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I have never received notifications, bar pm's. Though I have set it up so that I do. sigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_stones Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Glad to hear that it's not just me then. I've got a couple of the sale threads I'm following and despite them all being updated with new posts, I'm getting nothing in the notifications.

DeepDee Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Didn't receive any email notifications since Jan 2012. Sad, because someone pm'd me regarding a bass I offered for sale. Settings are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charic Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Just a request... If anyone notices or suspects a pattern related to not getting notifications can they put the theory here.

Hamster Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Just a thought - is it something to do with the way the SQL search code 'helper' interacts with the Sphinx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee4 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Same problem here. I had a reply to a thread but no notification by e-mail or in the notifications box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacqueslemac Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Any update, please? I am no longer getting notifications for most of the threads I'm subscribed to. The majority seem to be those threads that have been going for ages and have dozens of pages, but not all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacqueslemac Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Today I posted in [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/7919-how-was-your-gig-last-night/page__st__3380"]this thread[/url] and it's still not been included on my "follow" list. In fact, there are only seven members listed as following it, yet there are 170 pages of posts, so something is clearly still not working.

BigRedX Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) You have to actually click on the "Follow this topic" button in order to follow a thread. I post in the thread you linked to all the time, but I don't follow it and I would suspect that most of the regular posters there are the same. If you click on the number of followers next to the button you can see who they are. Your username is not one of them.

dave_bass5 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Thats not right IMO. You can click follow this thread if you dont want to post in it but ive never done that and i get to follow all the threads i post in. I think there is a setting in the User area that lets you automatically follow any thread if you post in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacqueslemac Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 My settings should mean that any thread I post in is automatically added to my "follow" list, but it's not happening. I've also clicked the "follow topic" button for the gigs thread and selected "immediate notification", but that doesn't work. As soon as I return to the thread the "follow topic" button reverts to the same setting (i.e. NOT "unfollow topic"). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
