New Feature: Private Message Notification
« on: June 03, 2002, 10:46:00 AM »
The other day, Matt suggested that we add a feature to notify registered users of new private messages. That was a really good idea, as I've found private messages days and weeks after they were sent.

So we've done it. If you'd like to use this feature, click on the preference link over there to the left and select "Yes" for the option "Notify me when I get a private message." (make sure the email address in your profile is correct. It doesn't have to be public and it can be a hotmail or other anonymous address. But it has to be valid.)

Next upgrade--you'll be able to choose whether or not to get notification when someone posts to a topic to which you've posted.

Ok, all done. When you reply to a topic, look at the bottom of the screen, under the text box, above the submit button. There's a new checkbox labeled "Send Me notification when a new post is received in this topic" that does just what it says it does.

This is in addition to the system wide notification, located in your profile settings, that will notify you of every response to every thread in which you've posted.

Forgive me for being a computer dummy, but how do you send a private message? I can't find a button to push. Thanks

In the menu to the left there's a "Private Messages" link.
