The Community Notification feed stopped ...

[mr_lincoln]

Has anyone noticed that their Notification feed is NOT updating with replies to threads we Subscribe to or even when someone @ mentions you?  Just started today ...

Should I don my tin foil hat and fear the worst, like another form of  "Divide and Conquer" levied against members?  Is it another unsolicited setting change by the venue?  Will Notifications be done away with forever?  Will we be charged a FEE to turn Notifications back on?  Should I fear the worst?  SHOULD I?  WHAT'S HAPPENING?  THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!

Okay, glad I got that out of my system ...

I got curious this morning when I had no notifications and hadn't had any so I went to 'my profile' and scrolled down the page.   Maybe this stuff was here before and I just didn't know it, but now I have all the posts I have responded to, etc.

---

However you must scroll down until you get the 'see all' notification.  Click on that. 

---

Can you take a screen shot of that "see all" notifications setting and where it is?  I just went through my Settings again and to luck, still no notification feed ...

At the top right of this page, your name should be there.  Beside it is a small arrow.  Click on the arrow and it will give you a drop down menu.  At the bottom of this menu?  there should be three different items to click on.   Click on 'my profile'.   When you reach that page, scroll up? or down?  until you find the' see all.'

@creekcoyote   I don't have the "See all" check box in either My Profile or the Settings menu ... I actually think there is more to this supposed glitch then meets the eye ...

This was an issue back in March too.

Thanks for that ... I guess it's our turn in the barrel, huh?!?

This was an issue in April too.  Since then Notifications have been flakey (i.e. not receiving for all replies to posts).

My Notification Bell was stuck at 101 all week (I didn't access and took screenshots every day).  I had numerous replies to posts that weren't increasing the count.  When I logged-in this morning the number was 0 and I received the same message/screenshot posted here when I clicked on the bell.  There's no history to access (even via your profile, which only let's you see your post history).

Surprised to not see more members reporting this here, which begs the question .... is this just affecting some members?  And the questions ..... how & why?

There is a View All option, but this does not show you your Notifications from others who have replied to you.  This shows you your history of posts.

I agree that there is more to this supposed glitch than meets the eye .....

The "how" I think is simple, they can interrupt notifications on selected accounts ... its just programming.  The "why" is actually a question that is more difficult to answer given the "guidelines" that members are held to for posting.  One analogy that could be used is the "lost and found" box ... when something goes missing the Lost and Found box is one place to look for it ... the sad part though is that some times things are simply never found again.

Just a heads up - the notifications NEVER increases after it hits 101. You have to click to see them and then it resets back to 0 and starts again.

An Aesop fable tells of a farmer's wife that dropped a round of cheese and off it rolled down the hill. Immediately, she dropped the other round of cheese to chase after the first round of cheese.

It begs the question, "What kind of cheese was it?"

What a great change for the board.  Now maybe a few of the "helpful" posters will need to search for another way to get attention.

[pink.fish.rule]

It's just "cosmetic" = )

[fern*wood]

That's fine, still what I'm referring to---appearances.   Some wish to appear helpful, when they are actually being the exact opposite.
