• Hi - We're having intermittent forum issues. Posts, alerts, and anything involving email like signing up or password changes are having problems but not for everyone or everywhere. Josh is working on it. No ETA right now. Thanks Josh - BTW this is a volunteer forum so SLA's are just best effort. EDIT -> I manually batch updated about 25 people stuck on the email notification. Try logging in now with your password. EDIT -> May 8/23. I updated another bunch of users stuck on email notifications. Try to login if you are stuck. If you really can't get in contact us on facebook or if you know a forum member get them to ask us.

Email notifications not working

Seems that since we had our crash email notifications are hit and miss. I turned them all on and on in my profile and that fixed them for a while but they seem to have stopped working again.

David,
I don’t get the E-mail notifications anymore either.

The January Crash has shaken a few things up.

Uh oh. That may mean people can’t register as a new member. @Jwest7788 can you please check whatever it is when you check this problem?

I’ve got loads of notifications in my folder for this. Lots from today. Are they ending up in a junk filter David?

Nada in the junk folder. I've whitelisted the site as I thought that might have been the problem.

Just some additional details:
I get email notifications for new posts in watched forums
I get email notifications for conversations started with me

I get some email notifications for posts on threads I've posted in

Edit: I just 'watched' all forums with alerts and email notifications turned on. I expect that will solve the problem.

Apparently I can attach files through the main ’forum’, but not in PMs.

You need to purchase a premium membership in order to attach files in PMs.
Thanks Craig.
My membership must have ran out, but my renewal date is in October.

Three of us have been trying for a few hours to figure out if the ‘attach files’ Icon disappeared because of the Jan.24 system CRASH.

I think it's there Craig. There are a lot of options. I did the monthly auto-renewing.

But your memory is vastly superior to mine. If you go through it and it really is gone, let me know and I'll raise it at our next admin meeting.

I don't have a problem with the monthly auto-renewing as long as it doesn't charge me CC $5 every month. When you select that option are you given the option to renew for x months up front?
