Do you get e-mail alerts?

[Callahan]

I've noticed that the method for choosing notification by e-mail that a topic you are watching has been updated has changed with the latest forum upgrade.

If you want to get an e-mail whenever a topic is updated, do the following:

Click on the "profile" link at top this page.

On next page, you will see "Member's bio - modify profile - bookmarks."

Click on "bookmarks."

On the next page, click "Manage bookmarks."

At this page, you finally get to make your notification choice. It's easiest to go to the bottom of the page where they list the "Default" settings.

Your choices are -- e-mail, private message or none.

I chose e-mail because I like to be told a topic has been updated.

Whenever you want to be updated on a thread you start or are following make sure to check the box that says, "Check this box if you wish to bookmark this thread."

Hope this helps, but then maybe I was the only one confused... ;D

Darned if I could find the "Manage Bookmarks" page after clicking on "Bookmarks."

Of course it could be right in front of me and I might miss it, but I did look all over the Bookmarks page.

Thanks,
Ron

I don't blame you. It is hard to see. There's a maroon banner. It says "Bookmarks" on the left side and "Manage Bookmarks" (in black type so it's hard to see) on the right side. Click on it.

Thanks, Callahan!
It was hard to see, although it was, as I expected, right in front of me.

Yes I also get the notifications when its been updated. I actually enjoy that it does just that.

We haven't heard from Callahan in years. Maybe he'll get an update! ;-)

It would be good to hear from him again. Hopefully he does receive the updates.
