Am no longer notified of mentions... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Lonewolf · 02-28-2015, 09:46 PM

There have been several occasions over the last several months where someone mentioned me by name, and I am not notified. I used to receive notifications and my mention count would change...neither happens now.

Sometimes the posts are time-sensitive in nature, and I can't get the information to the person who requested it soon enough in light of this problem.

*Would it be possible to have this fixed?

Thank you.

Nope. Thank you for the test though!

I've been at 12 mentions for like half a year now. I only knew you had done it since I manually came back to this thread.

Same here, not getting notifications.

Strange, that time it worked perfectly.

@Lonewolf @Decay107 the only time I have seen mentions not work is when someone edits their post to add a mention in. The forum software only sends the notification to the person if there is a mention in the initial post.

Thanks Tut, but I'm still getting nothing...?

swarb · 03-02-2015, 09:16 PM

@Lonewolf @Decay107 @swarb initial post or opening post?

If I can add anything to this, it happened to me more than once that someone was trying to mention somebody else, and yet I would get mentioned instead. So maybe it's the person doing a "faulty" mention too. For example, someone would try to mention "Lonewolf" but because "Lonewolf" starts with "Lo" (my username), the mention would be sent to me.

Thanks for the the suggestions guys, but nothing has worked.

I am sure only an admin/mod can fix this, but they haven't posted in this thread so.....?

If its an issue with that many people (myself included about half the time) could you guys take it up with the server/forum host?
