I don't think anyone has posted about this yet.
What is the alert/ email system for notifying me of new comments posted by people I am Following?
On the old platform, I would be able to subscribe to "immediate/ daily/ etc." email notifications. This was handy.
It doesn't seem like I am getting alerts to new comments made by the lovely people I am Following. Do we only get alerts to threads or forums, etc., that we are "watching"? If so, is there a way to connect that alert feature to Followers too, so that I can get email notifications?
In our account, under "Your Alerts"/"Latest Alerts", I see that it says, "Watched Threads" and "Watched Forums". But no such topic as, well -- "Watching those you Follow". I loved reading a lot of their comments. Is the only way to do this (at this point) is to manually seek their Avatars on the "People You Follow" section on the "Members Online Now" on the home page (or in my account profile area), and click their pop-up Profile to check out their latest posts?
I'd love to get email notifications, like with the old platform.
Does my query make sense? Maybe the answer is clear and I have just not understood it yet...
Anyway, I am trying to test something. Since the new platform started, I began following two new people... so I am trying to test to see if I am getting "alerts" for their posted comments (so I can Follow their wisdom), versus the other people I subscribed to Follow when we were over on the old platform. I am trying to discover if maybe it's just that the old subscription/notifications opportunity for the Followers did not migrate to the new platform, even though everything still shows I am Following them.
