Email Notification Subject

[Primordial]

The subject for email notifications no longer reflects the name of the thread that it's notifying about. Is this by design?

Also, in the thread list view, rolling over the subject used to display a tool tip with a preview of the text in the post. That hasnt worked for a while either.

Just though I'd let you guys know.. Cheers!

I have to say that the old style way of thread notification was much better as it allowed for the emails to be sorted by thread name, now they are all just sorted as one and you have to go through each one.

Yeah it'll be back to the way it was soon.

Rather than starting a new thread...

I haven't been getting email notifications for months (since the upgrade a few months ago I think) I've checked every setting and had Merli go through them with me but still no emails came.

It might have something to do with me changing my registered email address for here just a few days before the upgrade.

Anyway, now I seem to be getting emails for every single new thread made in For sale parts for some bizarre reason. As you can imagine that's a lot of spam.

thanks.

I used to get 250 emails a day from reply notifications from wh0retown! lol

and yes having to sort it was easy enough, but not now

[Duncan]

thanks Prank looking forward to seeing that back

Adam, you are able to subscribe to forums as well as topics so maybe you have managed that somehow

[Abo Bob]

Ahh thanks for that.

I now see that in the options button up the top of a thread there is no option to subscribe to the thread only, it subscribes to the whole forum. You actually have to post and tick the box to be subscribed to a thread.

If you click on "track this topic" it subscribes you to just that topic.

should be at the top of the options listing.

Any progress on this by any chance??

[Duncan]

:please:

[Interloper]

yeah, i agree that this feature was pretty usefull...

[funkymonkey]

modifying it now... hang in there. you might recieve a few wierd emails while I change the coding.

[Primordial]

Woohoo

[Duncan]

wierd emails happily accepted

[funkymonkey]

*makes note: change all email subjects to read Duncan loves the penis*

[Duncan]

still sounds better than "Topic Subscription Reply Notification". But shouldn't you be fixing it instead of posting?

wonder if i can ban an admin

[funkymonkey]

no you can't. go away.

[Duncan]

lol...and I guess it didn't work grumpymonkey?

[funkymonkey]

it did, but i had to revert it because it started sending out multiple copies of the same email.

gah.

[Duncan]

BTW notifications were playing up earlier....not being sent, some were held for ages....I got an email for your 4.16am post at 11.27 today
