None notifying (1 Viewer)

How come my watched threads stop notifying me.
How can this be fixed ?

So, I just got two alerts....one for getting two reactions to my post in your thread, and another for your thread in this section. My alerts have worked without issue, so it's likely a setting you have in your Preferences that is preventing them from showing up.

Pay attention to this one in particular:

• 
  Generate new alerts without reading threadsIf enabled, clearing all "new post" alerts for a thread will allow new ones to generate, even if you haven't viewed the thread since your previous alert(s).
  
  If disabled, new alerts will only be generated after you visit a thread.

Weird, this issue began out of the blue for me too. I never changed any parameters on my end.

I’ll check out what you said to do. Thanks for the info woody.

Thanks for posting this Broski

Also, mine was not checked. It is now!

Thank you for your help.
If it’s a settings issue how come I will be getting the notification and then they just stop.
Also I get some notifications for some threads but not others.
Again thanks for the help

I went through my settings earlier today, and noticed this setting, and turned it on.

I mean, missing one notification = never getting notified again, ever, unless you visit that thread for some reason.

you've checked your Preferences, specifically the one I noted?

Cookies and browsers can also be a headache....log out of the forum, clear your cookies, log back in.

I have never had an issue with notifications, but I also have very few set outside of those needed for forum Administration.
