Some notification when new PM arrives?

Post by STEVE333 »


The small red number that shows how many unread PM's you have is easily overlooked. I had two PM's that I didn't know I had for 10 days!

Would it be possible to have a "Message" of some sort to alert you that a new PM had arrived?

You can change this in your “User Control Panel”.

Click on the “person” icon (next to the word “Gallery” at the top of the page.)
Select “User Control Panel”.
Click on the ‘Board preferences” tab
Click on “Edit notification options”
Locate “Someone sends you a private message” and click on the box under Email.

You will now get an email notification when someone sends you a PM.

Thanks so much Gordon. And thank you for taking the time to answer all our questions/requests (and quickly too)!

This will be a big help to my old eyes.
