Any progress on the no notifications issue yet?

Hello! I'm going to send you a private message to get some more information before looking inot your account.

I also do not get email notifications. I think that this is a lost cause.

Yes I'm sorry it's taking so long for some users to begin receiving notifications. I'll ask for another update.

Yeah, That would be nice.

Count me as another who has not received any notifications in quite a while.

some users to begin receiving notifications. I'll ask for another update.

I'd be interested to know if anyone is getting the emails. Or is it a case of people not bothering to advise. I know in my case I didnt advise until recently, but emails have not worked for me in many months now.

I have not received an email notification since the middle of January. I posted this problem on this forum in January and I still do not receive notifications. In fact, I receive no email notifications from any Kalmach forum. I have sent private messages to enash a number of times and I still get no email notifications. I do not blame her for not being able to fix the problem. The fix to this problem is out of her hands.

can anyone tell me how to tell when notifications start to work again?  Do they just start dumping old ones in the mailbox or do i have to activate them again or something else?  Tks.  Mine are still not working.

I need to add a clarification. My name does show up on the FSM home page, but not on the Forum page.

 

 

This problem isn't going away any time soon, I think. I first noticed problems in February, although I hadn't been very active up to that time so I may not have noticed the issue with email notifications. On February 25, I wrote to enash, at her request, to tell her that I still wasn't seeing the notications. Now, more than two months later, nothin'. It seems clear that FineScale's management just doesn't consider this forum to have any importance to their bottom line. I've given up hoping for an improvement, and just try to learn as much as I can (and offer help when I can). 

(It seems as well that notifications aren't sent for personal messages, either. At least none of the ones I've sent have been answered.)

Hey everyone! I wish I had better news but I honestly don't know when the notification issue will be resolved. Kalmbach's tech team is still working to fix this issue but it is a lower priority. I will continue updating them with the information you give me and will let you know when I hear news. I hope you can still enjoy this forum with all of its scale modeling goodness.

I've been through this several times - last time last January. I've been a long time user of your forums for over ten years and normally they've worked just fine. Then, for no reason, they quit. I used a second email address and created a new profile yesterday but the result is the same. I join a Group Build Forum (in my case British Army and 75th Anniversery 1945). I can post. I can log back on. I can see my post. I have most definitely subscribed to the forum. This has always worked in the past. So let's look at my settings. According to DISCUSSIONS I have made a post on your Test Forum and am a member of the British Army and 75th Anniversery Group Builds. I subscribed to both lists and requested email on the Test forum. According to Email Notifications: Under Forums - it says "Not Subscribed to Any Forum": Under Forum Topics the three forums I am subscibed to are all listed (Test, British Army, 75th Anniversery.) Obviously for some reason the Email Notification list does not reflect the instructions I've given it. (Under Forum Topics, I am able to "Remove" all topics listed above.)

As there was nothing wrong for years (other than a temporary collapse of the forums during the IPMS meetings in, I think, 2018) and then things simply stopped, the problem is most certainly on your end. I ask you to please fix this. I like the group builds a lot - I base my builds around them. I have known many of these people for years. For what its worth every other site I'm on with a forum (KitMaker, WorldwarIaircraft) works flawlessly. And so has yours for the greater part of a decade.

I'll make a deal. You fix this problem and I'll renew my subscription to Finescale. I subscribed to your magazine to show my appreciation for the forums - frankly, I really don't need any more "how to" articles at my stage. (I didn't know my subscription had ended because you kept sending me issues on Zinio because I was on a digital account. So there was no email sent to me reminding me to renew. I've told your office I'm getting issues not paid for - I've got July 2020 - but would be glad to renew.

One of the Group Build leaders has told me that others are having troubles like this. Please consider fixing this - it can only help Kalmbach. And it can only help me - I have no desire to get involved with Facebook.

Best

Eric,

I have the same problem regarding email notifications that you have. Just forget it. Kalmbach has no interest in fixing the problem. Just to let you know, the email notification problem exists in all of their forums.
