List of notifications?

[arthurk]

Either I'm having an extended and worringly early senior moment, or I used to be able to view a list of RootsChat boards and topics that I was getting notifications for - possibly somewhere in my profile. However, I've looked everywhere I can think of, and can't find it.

Is this something that got changed at the revamp, and if so, will it be coming back? Or am I getting confused with what I can do on other forums? And if I can't access a list of notifications, what are the current options for managing them?

Thanks for any help,

Arthur

Have a look at Account Settings under your Profile.  It should show what you have set up.

Thanks for that - I have now found it, but it didn't seem very obvious, and I wonder if there might be scope for tweaking the menus or navigation a little?

In the main menu bar (the dark brown one), if I hover on Profile, I get a drop-down menu with 3 items in it - Summary, Account Settings and Forum Profile. None of those leads me to a page where I can manage notifications.

To find the notifications page I have to go to the main Profile (summary) page and hover on the Modify Profile button for the drop-down, which incidentally also includes links to a couple of other things that don't appear in the main menu drop-down.

When I was looking before, it didn't occur to me that managing notifications would be part of modifying my profile, so I didn't put my cursor anywhere near the Modify Profile button and therefore didn't see the link - but at least I know now. However, it makes me wonder: the drop-downs on the Profile Info and Modify Profile buttons between them link to 8 different pages, of which only 3 appear in the main menu drop-down, so would it be possible for that to include all 8?

Anyway, thanks again for your help,

The Account Settings link under the profile leads directly to a page that has Notifications in a list on the left hand side - at least mine does.   Yours should too.

Thank you both for your help:

It does now, but it didn't until I found the option in Modify Profile > Look and Layout. However, Bob's way is quicker.

That Profile Help page would probably have solved my problem! However, I went to the one listed as "Profile - Notifications", which still refers to the old site design. And as I hadn't at that stage seen the Modify Profile options either, I was a tad confused.

Anyway, all sorted now, so thanks for your help.
