Question Quoting

calculator01 · 12-29-2013, 11:03 AM

In the past, when a user quoted one of my posts, I would have a notification in with my subscribed threads. I am no longer getting these notifications and I greatly miss them. They were nice for when you did not want to follow a thread, but would like to reply to something if called upon.

Is this a glitch or was this feature done away with?

I still get notices. The quote must include your screen name , or an added @ScreenName, for you to get a notification.

Have you perhaps checked the "Disable Enhanced Notifications" checkbox on the options page?

I indeed did get a notification about this, but I did not get one from Adam's post.

When I look back at the other quotes from people in different threads, they all have my username right in there, just like the above quotes. But yet no notification. The last notification I got was 3 days ago and I know I have been quoted a few times by different users since then.

I also have not disabled the enhanced notifications option.

this is strange

If you're also subscribed to the thread, clicking on the subscribed thread notification will clear the quote notification. However, all the quoted posts should appear in this list regardless of which notifications you click on:

Yeah, the quoted posts over the last few days definitely don't show up on the list of my quoted posts.
