Private Message Notifications??? Empty Private Message Notifications???

Post by ferret Mon Aug 22, 2016 10:52 am

I need a little help here. I have just discovered that I have two private messages...one a couple of days old and the other a MONTH old.
Is there a way to get a notification that I've got pm's?...like the pop up on the other board? or how? I'm not seeing (or I could be blind) how to set this up?
Thanks in advance for the guidance.

Do you have email?  Link them (PM's) to your email for notification.  I think there is instructions in your personal data.  Works for me.

And there's the cumbersome way I've been using: Check the "quick jump" menu when you start. PM's, if any, will show there. Very Happy

I receive email notifications of PMs, but every now and then it is late with one. On at least one occasion I never was notified at all. I found a message from weeks before when checking on a notification for a new message. So, every now and then I check the quick jump menu just in case.

Thank you to all. It appears that something is not working properly because under my Profile, I went in to both notifications and preferences. I already had the notify via e-mail checked yes and I already had the pop up checked yes as well. Neither is working for me.

Back to Basics...I'll have to check the QuickJump Menu at start up.

Also when you have a PM the quick jump menu font should be in red.

That may not be working either for me. PM me and I'll see...later...if I have an internet connection. I've gotten so paranoid about suddenly not having a connection that I copy (an e-mail or a forum post) before I click send...just in case. Saved my bacon a few times.

Trailrunner is absolutely correct. The logo "CLICK HERE for QuickJump Menu" turns red if you have a pm. Thank you!...any way we could get it to flash and jump up and down too? ;)

BTW, "dicey" is a very nice and polite way of describing the quality of my internet connection...'nuff said?
