Since the new software update, I have not been getting notifications for posts that I am tagged in. After asking around, there are others seeing the same issue. I have verified that my preferences have alerts enabled for all mentions on the forum. Is there something else that I’m not thinking of?

is it just the @ function, or is it when you are quoted, also.
I know the quote thing is working for me. I don't normally get tagged, so I don't know if that works.
 
Quoting works, it is just the @ function. It also looks specifically to be in threads I have not posted as I did get a notification this afternoon that I was mentioned in a thread that I had posted in previously.
 
Also a thing to try may be to go to your profile settings, disable notifications, log out, then log back in and reenable them. Just guessing, but I know that this work with some other technical issues I have sometimes on my phone or computer.
 
I use a computer running Linux and Brave Browser. Brave is Chrome based.
Works with Firefox, too.
 
Sometimes this happens to me too. I do believe that if the post is edited to include @ so and so after it’s been posted, it doesn’t generate a notification.
 
I’ll test it now.
 
I have long suspected that to be true, but have never been able to prove it.

New thread in tech support. Now you will know for sure. I’d love to know too if you feel so inclined as to share.
