How long do New Replies to Your Posts keep appearing?
« on: Sunday 13 July 08 04:22 UTC (UK) »

Can someone please tell me how long New Replies to Your Posts keep coming onto your pc when logging onto RC?  I have a huge long list with some dating back tpo June 15 still listed for me.

Of course one could go to each post and say not to notfy etc but that would take forever and I don't have time of patience to do that individually for what has now become a very long list.
Puts me off replying a bit...
So is there a set time after which they won't appear meaning they'll progressively disappear if I don't keep replying to them?

Thanks
charlotte

Hi Charlotte

You could always 'lock'  the message after you have your required answer,  to stop any more replies ??

Hi Daizi,
Wouldn't I need to be the original poster of the query to have the ability to lock the message?

I am asking about other people's posts to which I have replied but now have nothing further to contribute.

Thanks,
Alison

Sorry i misunderstood,  well in that case  maybe click the   'do not notify'   after each new post from now onwards?

Hi Charlotte,

please read Topic: Messages, Replies and E-mails
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,161799.0.html

where I have explained the differences between Messages, e-mail-notifications and other types of notifications on RootsChat.

Summing up, you can't remove items from the Show new replies to your posts.  list.  Just read them briefly and they will disappear from that list.
(I use a tabbed browser, so by opening them in a new tab, I can delete them almost immediately, as soon as the tab is created, if I know I don't want to read them.

regards,
Bob

Bob, Thanks for your  reply.  I just feel it would take me hours to open the total accumulation. And  if some other person replies after I've read one won't I then get aother notification?

If I went to my profile and unticked the notify, then shut down my pc, when I restarted it and came to RC would that eliminate the accumulation?

I hardly ever look at the page "New Replies to Your Posts" - because I get notified anyway when people reply.

Is the problem that you go directly to that page when opening up Rootschat, Charlotte?

If so the solution would be to delete that link from your favorites/bookmarks, and bookmark a different page - for instance "Recent Unread Topics" instead.

No Shaun I don't go there directly on opening RC.. It's just that the long list is there and keeps growing... I guess the thing is just not to click onto the link and leave it closed... and growing in length by the day

Again:  (and again and again and again .......  Roll Eyes )

Clicking on "notify", whether on the topic, or in your profile
    only affects the e-mail notification and nothing else !!


If there are topics in Show new replies to your posts.  that are rarely replied to, then clicking on them will cause them to be deleted from this list.

If they are topics with constant "traffic" (TOT Chat topics, for instance) then they will constantly re-appear.  Although if you click on any (now) locked topics, they will then also disappear, as nobody can add any new replies there.

I just click on new replies to your posts, then, if I am not interested, I just click on each one and then on new replies again.  Even with hundreds it would take just a few minutes - then they disappear!

New tab would make it a bit slower, I think!
