owheely Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I'm positive that my email address is correct, that I've selected "Notify me about replies", and that emails aren't going to my spam folder. I just want an email notification when someone replies to me
Esper Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I don't get email notifications either, but what I do get is forum notifications when I visit. They pop up on the top. I actually prefer this method. I think I'll try getting the email to work and test it out on this thread. EDIT: ok, so there is an option for an 'email' either once a day or once a week and a instant 'notification' for followed topics. The instant notification is what I used, but I changed a few of them to 'email once a week' Now, time to wait....

Not sure why I get any at all, but since I check the forum more often than email, it doesn't matter to me at all.

It might be that you've already checked it and viewed it, so it doesn't send an email out? I check the forum regularly, (much more than I should) and the standard instant notification has worked well. Ok, now reply to this, and I'll wait a day without looking and, hopefully, I'll get an email.

owheely Posted July 31, 2018 Author Posted July 31, 2018 I played with the toggle switches for the notification type, and that has resolved the issue. Thanks
