Anyone else not getting bhw notifications?

Stuffedegg · Dec 13, 2020

What am I missing?

I used to get notifications on my phone for replies, likes (not so much) and warning points

Now I get nothing.

I know I can enable emails, but push notifications are better. Is it just me?

This comes up every now and then.

The forum sends out alerts for threads you're watching. However, if the threads goes on to the next page and you don't check the thread itself, the forum will not send out any future alerts unless you check the thread again (otherwise, I would constantly be receiving thousands of alerts for the marketplace threads I've approved).

Try visiting the last page of the threads you're having this issue with and see if this fixes the problem. If there are any specific, non-multi-page threads you're not receiving alerts for, post the link below and I'll see if I can figure out what's going on.

If the above does not address your issue, then please feel free to give further details so someone can look in to it.

Thanks @Sephrata

I literally get nothing. I have to refresh my browser, even to see the 1 next to my bell for your thread move and reply.

Edit: this is not just my phone, either. I don't get windows 10 notifications either.

I used to get asked for permission a lot for push notifications. Of course I accepted every time, but they have just stopped.

Are you still getting alerts? Top of the page, looks like the a bell, and it goes red when you get an alert.

yes, but only after browser refresh.

ok, so having a look at my preferences again, I see this:

maybe it is something I have done?

EDIT: I have changed all of my settings, not sure what made them change, but it may well have been my own stupidity and a waste of time posting here at all. Apologies.

Lets see if I get an.....

You have the push notifications blocked from your browser. Click on the lock at the URL (left top corner) > Notifications > Allow
