Notification Settings

[miiila]

Help! 🙂

I really liked the notifications in the old forum, especially in combination with the ability to bookmark topics or posts and choose a reminder date for your notifications!, but I'm not getting warm with the notification settings here.

I managed to get rid of all the notifications about people reacting (like/laugh/etc. button) to topics or posts (although not discretely, which doesn't seem to align with what the settings options say) finally, so there's a little less "noise" in my notification box.

But I can't see a way to silence all the notifications about anyone posting a topic, see screenshot. Is there? If not, the notifications aren't very useful. I just want notifications about followed people having posted a topic. I have to trawl through so many notifications that don't interest me at all, to see the few that do, that I just give up after looking at the first few notifications. Of course, I also read topics by people I don't follow (and occasionally might follow someone then), but I don't want notifications for literally every topic that gets posted, it's just too much.

I was a bit annoyed too. 

You can click here:

And remove entire forum sections. I have no idea how I followed them, but the number of notifications was crazy.

That's great, thank you! I wonder, too, I think those two that I now unfollowed were the ones I had muted on the last forum ... maybe the migration got that wrong ...? In any case, this should improve my forum experience quite a bit 🙂

I also used to get those notifications 😒 and what’s worst it was all topics that I had blocked on the old forum and now that it migrated to a new forum they suddenly became followed by me. 
I was really surprised to see that suddenly I was following “my fiverr gigs” category on this new forum. 
 

But I’m glad that you found how to mute them.
