Mentions
-
Recently I noticed I hadn't receive any "mentions" in a while. I kept a look at it and it turns out we don't get notifications when someone mentions us (
@username
) anymore. Is this intentional or a bug?For explanation: Mentions were never sent out when someone replied to you or quoted you, but only if someone used your username in an unrelated post.
-
@luetage it doesn't work anymore? I didn't notice when it stopped, but I know the feature you're referring to.
-
@lonm Well, let's test it.
-
@luetage I got the mention notification that time
-
@luetage I'm getting your mention notifications. You've definitely got them turned on here: https://forum.vivaldi.net/user/lonm/settings (Mine is set to "Notification only")
-
@lonm Mine too.
-
I didn't notice anything. It seems to work for me, @luetage .
-
It didn't work for me either for a while but today, I received one
so I don't know if it is a bug or if the forum has hiccups sometimes as it was the case for the weekly mails. -
I didn't get the mention notification @hlehyaric
And @LonM I mentioned you three times now, did you get all three? -
I saw this just now:
And in my notification panel/drawer/thingy:
-
@lonm I don't know why you got 4 oO, doesn't make sense.
Anyway, I think we can conclude it's a problem with my account. -
@luetage You're right, there's something going wrong, I didn't get the mention notification either.
-
@hlehyaric Welcome to the club ^^
-
@luetage Just mentioned you in a post where you didn't participate at all to see if it does anything. Did you get one?
-
@luetage I get that one. Happy to join you in this club
-
@ornorm Damn, I got that one
Now I am confused. If it was only posts one doesn't participate in, LonM shouldn't have gotten all the notifications for the mentions I put out there…
-
@luetage Thanks for reporting it. It should work smoothly and is definitely a bug. We're checking it out internally.
-
@luetage I noticed that, when the conversation is opened in a tab/window, I don't get the notification and, when I'm somewhere else in the forum, I can get them.
Edit: Just to verify, did you check into your full notifications list? They might be there but not shown under the bell? -
@ornorm Yeah, I check the notifications list and even used the dropdown to filter for mentions.
-
@luetage Ok. In any case, as stated by Gaëlle, it is definitely a bug. So I wish it will be fixed soon so you won't have that issue anymore.
