Title: Email notifications ?
Post by John. on Nov 4^th, 2008 at 6:01pm

I'm not getting any email notifications for new topics and for topics that I have been subscribed to.

I have my ISP set to NOT block anything as spam.

It seems to have stopped working a couple weeks ago.

Is it just me, or is Radified email notifications working for everyone else?

Hi John.

The email notification mod I had previously installed did not work with YaBB v2.3, but it is in the process of being updated.

I was going to wait until it comes out of beta, but just may go ahead and install the beat version.

Thanks for the update. I don't mind waiting, but didn't know the cause -- but now I do! thanks.

Was I supposed to get an email notification for your post? If so, I didn't get one.

John,

As of Ver 2.0 (I think) YaBB supports RSS. You could subscribe to the RSS feed for any topic you are interested in instead of requesting email notifications. I find RSS cleaner and more convenient than email, but your tastes may vary.

EDIT: Hmmm, I see the RSS subscription button for the board, but not for individual threads. It might not suit your use. It's still worth a try.

That's it. My profile was not set Yes for email notifications. Maybe that was a new option and the default was off; I can't ever remember changing it but it's possible.

Thanks!

Cool. I looked around in the Admin area and enabled everything I saw that said 'email'. =)

Thanks Rad. I just got my first email-notification in some time. It was from your post, so it's definitely working.
