PM notification not received & other notifications

[donkey42]

long time no c mate! hows things? they made u a mod yet?:P

PM notification not received, and i don't seem to be getting all notifications of posts i've made, i presume this is cos the content of the post i've made is not really helpful, just let me know, thanks

I've noticed that too - I figured it was because Sniper was doing updates on the site or something. It's no biggy, I just check my subscribed threads for new posts.

I'm not sure why but I can tell you its got nothing to do with the contents of the post.

For PM notification that's odd, have a look in the your spam inbox may it ends up there?

no, using opera as mail client, got "All Messages" selected, tried looking in "Spam" folder and nothing

send your self a PM and then check your email, as I just did and got a email. Also if possible try an alternative email address/

will do, :cheers:

[ot]BTW: i thought i wasn't getting notifications because i'm thick with some / most things[/ot]

I get notifications of most things, it's just every now and then I'll either get a few or none at all.

I just use subscribed threads and there's a pop-up if I get a PM. I leave my browser running pretty much all the time when I'm on my computer and check HWF every now-and then.

sent myself PM, received email notification, but no popup saying "new PM", but in PM it says i have 1 new message

BTW: no notifications received about this post

Edit: getting another email address, to test it

Recieving instant emails could be the email providers problem coz somethimes I've noticed that I recieves emails very late.... In regards to Instant Message Popup problem, look at the picture below. Also, try to run in different browsers like FF/IE and see if you still dont get that message popup.....

didn't think so

[ot]how did you add image into your post ?[/ot]

 

[Matt555]

You host the image somewhere (like ImageShack® - Hosting for example) then use the direct link to the image and use this code:

[noparse][img]direct link to image here[/img][/noparse]

i know about ImageShack®, do i upload image to imageshack then link to it ?

BTW: thankies

 

[Matt555]

Yes you do upload the image there and use the direct code (imageshack do give you the forum codes for the image I think)

Example:
Imagine I've just uploaded the image for my signature, I've got the direct link and I would then use the code:

[noparse][img]http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/3107/signaturesx9.jpg[/img][/noparse]

to display the image like this:
