Message Notifications

**1996 328ti** · 06-21-2009, 02:03 AM

Due to so many people replying to their message notifications instead of visiting the forum, the post will no longer be part of the email.

You will need to log on to read the reply.

When I figure a way to prevent people from replying to me, I'll restore the function.

so it's still going to notify us but it won't say the message contents?

Yeah, Steven actually had it this way before but somewhere along the line, perhaps during site upgrades it came back. You'll still get the email saying that you've received a PM or a reply to your post but it won't contain the actual message that was posted. Basically what happens is people will get the email and then mistakenly reply to the email instead of returning to the site and replying to the actual PM or thread, lol. This means that Steven gets a pile of foreign messages in his inbox. So by not including the contents of the message in the email notification, it basically forces the recipient to log on and check the messages directly.

your administrator or board e-mail in vbulletin CP just needs to be change to what ever e-mail you want these reponses to go to

How about a pop up that says 30 lashes from Steven for replying to this post?

It's the same address used as the contact email, so I don't think that will work.

I might be able to make it so only site supporters can see the message, but they are just as quilty.

I used to have DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE, which didn't work.

I guess I can ban people for a week. Maybe that will deter them?

quilty?

That sounds like an insult.

I get a few of these messages a day.
I don't mind them so much, but people may think they are replying to the person who wrote the original post.
