Wasn't sure where to post this but for some reason I've stopped receiving email notifications when I get topic replies??
Were coming through normally up until i started my last topic then haven't received one since?
any ideas?

Re: No notifications
It happened to me a couple of years ago and could never work it out till last week!!!
When you reply to a post, or even when you create a post scroll down in the edit window (assuming you are using the full site version and not mobile)
look in options (that's below the Preview and Send buttons - it in light grey so easy to miss)
either the second last or last option (depending on if you are replying or creating a post)
tick Notify me when a reply is posted
You can go back to your previous topics, edit your first post and check if the tick is there - if not, set it and you should be receiving emails again.
I have no idea why it should work and then suddenly stop, my theory is something goes wonky with the hosters

This is happening to me too ....
... but I've made sure my 'Notify me' box is ticked so don't know what is going on I also get email notifications from posts that happened months ago - and god only knows what is going on with my PMs. Tel seems to have fallen off the map I can't connect with him at all and I'm guessing you didn't get the one I sent you (Stevecat) and Greencat earlier in the week. Nick and TTMark didn't get the ones I sent before BC7 - I'm starting to feel paranoid

Re: No notifications
I did wonder why the PM I sent you wasn't being picked up
You can also fix notifications through your profile thusly :
Following our conversation at BC on your ongoing notifications problems. I have had a look within the main administration control panel (ACP), where admins can check users settings (within the limits I explained), and all seems to be in order.
The only thing left for me to suggest is looking in your own profile (which is personal to users - admins cannot alter or see settings in that section), and checking if you have set up having notifications if people reply to posts you have made, or indeed if you are watching/ 'following' a topic.

Click on the profile navigation bar button fig#1 to go to your profile.
Click on the notifications tab fig#3
This should pull up the following screen:

Check (click in the boxes to tick them), the boxes fig.#1 which you wish to activate and where you wish the notification to go
Now click the 'topic(s) being wached' fig#4 Pic1 to pull up the following screen to see which (if any), topics you are currently following:

How to Follow or Watch a topic:
Scroll down to the bottom right hand side of the topic you wish to follow (and receive notifications when new replies are made to it) and click on "Watch this Topic for Replies"
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Hope the above helps to resolve your notifications.
If not then you need to look through the rest of your profile settings. If these are all in order, then I am afraid the block in receiving notifications may lay in your pc/laptop/tablet/iphone/windows phone/android phone security settings.
Cheers
