Garnet Psaltery Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I don't know if my hands are just getting jumpy or there's something else going on, but lately when I'm trying to add a reaction to someone's post I sometimes get diverted to the profile of someone else who reacted, and mostly I don't know them. I just don't bother deliberately looking at profiles, so please don't puzzle about why I looked, whoever you people were. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was seeing the "you have blocked blah blah" message and right underneath it would be that person's post. It was driving me insane....r! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Clothing merchants that only have demos for some items -- and I'm talking new items here, not old stuff. Four out of six dress on the NEW wall have demos, but the other two do not. WTH is up with that ?!?!?! Even if they are buying full perm stuff and texturing it themselves, they should be able to do a demo.

MoiraKathleen Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Along the lines of important safety tips ... If you're trying to avoid a particular post (or two or three) completely, and don't even want to see the snippet of the last comment posted to it, don't click on "Next unread topic" when you're in the forum section with the posts, and don't click "Unread Content" at all. Viewing the list of forum sections, and topic listings within a section, to find unread sections and threads, works well as long you remember that's what you should be doing.

Cindy Evanier Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Peeve forum notifications. If someone quotes me, I lose the notification of this in the drop down anid a sea of notifications that someone reacted to my post. I don't care about reactions but I would like to check/reply to a quote. Maybe it's me and I am missing somewhere that I can choose just to be notified of quotes and not reactions?

I think something changed in the last forum upgrade. I'm pretty sure there used to be an option to pick what you were notified for. I do not get any notification for 'reactions' and I am pretty sure that is because I de-selected it from some list once upon a time. Yet I can no longer find such option -- hence why I'm pretty sure it is another negative fallout of the last forum software upgrade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get notifications for posts in threads/sub-forums that are in my list, for any quoting of me, for posts by people that I follow, and if anyone mentions me, but not for Reactions. I definitely remember turning that specific type of notification off long ago. However, I can no longer find any way to turn off notifications of just Reactions.
