I don't seem to be always getting PM notifications. Is this just me?
I saw the message at the top this morning that I had 1, and found that there were about 6 going back a week that I hadn't read.

Any suggestions?

I haven't noticed missing any (and when I log on to MTo I get reminded anyway).  Have you looked in your spam folder(s), maybe they are going there  ?

There's been no updates for a while, I just ran some maintenance routines in any case (after your report) but there was no errors or anything. Is it possible your notify settings were changed?

I also don't get a lot of PMs, and I have missed one on occasion but assumed that was because I used Tapatalk from time to time and it maybe marked them seen but not read.

Anyone else having this issue? (Check your PMs to see if there's any you may not have been notified for?)

They're arriving in the inbox as they should, it just isn't telling me.

Could be Tapatalk I suppose, although I used it for the first time in a whilst last night and this morning had an inbox notification, which would seem a bit backward.

It's hardly the end of the world but I've had a few "are you there? Anyone listening?" messages, and I've not replied to some that probably seem a bit rude.

Mine seems ok. But I rarely get PMs.

That's us mobile.

are we talking email notifications that you aren't getting?

May have been a case of the notifications getting stuck in our mail queue or your email host.

I have the same issue with tapa talk and my iPhone. Get the pm's fine but it doesn't tell me I have one. So it can go missed for awhile.

it's very rare I do get 6 in a week!
And yes, I'm talking about the little number at the top that's currently saying "My Messages [2]".

I'm guessing it's Tapatalk breaking things in some way.

I think there maybe an issue here.
The fuses the Kampfer ordered have arrived (Thank You Kampfer  :salute: ) - one of which is for Cupboard. I've sent Tom 2 pm's already and not as yet had a reply (although I note he's been on the forum) obviously he's not getting his messages through. Hopefully he' ll spot this and contact me.
I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.

I'm baffled too Steve  :think:
I use whatever is to hand, that could be my partners iPad, my sons nexus7, the laptop or as in this case my phone - never yet missed a beat.
As others have mentioned I bet Tapatalk is the culprit.

It was only a guess, this forum isn't without its gremlins... it has been upgraded and modified quite a bit... that being said none of the maintenance routines have turned up anything lately (vs before when it was regular)

Sorry guys, please don't take it personally. I do deal with things as soon as I see them and I do check if I'm expecting things.

My phone does have a mind of its own it seems, and that's not the one I carry at work either.
