• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

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?
