Forum Notification Settings

[Ralf Goertz]

Hello,

Somehow I have problems with the notification settings in this forum. Either I am getting mails for the content I follow or I don't get any notification at all.

I can't get it to set it so that when you visit the forum page, there is a number on the bell icon that indicates the number of notifications. What is the trick to set it like this?

I get either a bunch of mails or nothing! What is different about this forum and what am I doing wrong?

Best regards
Raller

IMHO this is the reason for my "no notification" problem. Why is this locked by administration?

The setting might be "locked", but it's locked "on", so that shouldn't be the issue.

I had something similar awhile ago not getting emails on the announcements forum. I was advised to "un-follow" the forum, completely sign out of the forum, sign back in again and re-follow.

This procedure solved it for me

Hi Matt,
that's the point, I only get emails, but i don't want them!

I just want a notification when i visit the forum. But because it's locked, i can't mark the column "Notification List", just like all the others are marked.

That's the problem, why is it locked?
