Forum suggestion - PM notification

LindseyM

Hi,

Just a suggestion really - is there any way when you get a PM you can get an email, maybe a setting that you can "set" to say send notification? Only because the bit at the top where it says you have new messages is quite small and I never seem to notice it until days later :rolleyes:

Just a thought anyway - still love the site!! :beer: :money: :T

Ah, but you can!

Scampers off to remind herself how ...

Yes, click on User CP from the green bar above each bit of the Forum, then click on Edit Options, then scroll down and tick the relevant boxes!

For this and all sorts of other clever stuff see SRA's Unofficial A-Z ...

:skips off to look at the settings and reminds herself to have a proper look about next time:

The other thing you could do is go to user cp > edit options > scroll down to the bottom of the 'messages and notification' choices, and check the box for receiving messages as a pop up box

It would be nice to have the message box flash for a new or unread message, particularly if your on MSE at the time.

Click on User CP under your user name above; choose 'Edit Options' from the menu on the left. Click on 'Show New Private Message Notification Pop-up' at the bottom of the list.
