Forum upgrade and support

[steven]

Hi there, we haven't enabled https, thats the next step now the upgrade is done.

[steven]

Started a new thread about 2000hrs on 17 June, 2019. Seams to have disappeared without a trace.
Thread was in Woodworking Forums - General.

Hi there, you might need to repost that one unfortunately.

Since the upgrade I'm no longer getting any email notifications for subscribed threads

EDIT: Not getting emails for new PMs either

I had this problem a month ago, appears my email provider is blocking emails from this forum. I used an alternate email address and problem fixed. Maybe something to try as a test.

One change I noticed was that the "want pictures" and "thanks for pics" emoji's on bottom of posts have lost their text description. Not a biggie that's for sure...

Picture(s) please and Thanks for picture(s) now fully labelled and working.

Cheers - Neil

I'm still not seeing subscribed emails from what has always been a reliable email address. Has anyone actually got emails as they'd expect?

Can you please check to make sure you are still subscribed threads and that there have been posts since you looked at them last.

We have found that over the last few months some servers have been stopping automated emails (which both pm and subscribed are) as spam. Try putting [email protected] on your trusted email list and see if your service provider will do the same.

Poundy I have changed your notifications from daily to instant to see if this makes a difference. elanjacobs I have left yours as it was - instant.

There are many thousands of email that go out from WWF daily, eg: subscribed threads, pm's, registrations, birthdays, contact us, admin notifications, reported posts and more.

If you have another server you can use it would be worth giving a try if the trusted list thing doesn't work.

If you are on Optus or Apple server I believe they were/are blocking emails from Woodwork Forums have a look at this post and the couple after it >CLICK ON ME< for a bit of info to do with this.

Hope some of this is of help.

Hi,
I did not get a birthday e mail from the woodwork forum for my recent birthday but I got one from the metalwork forum.
I do not know if this has anything to do with the foregoing.
Regards

[ubeaut]

Oh bummer.... Happy Birthday. Hope it was a goodun for you.


Looking at changing the email server in the next week or so.

[poundy]

Yep, I'm still subscribed to threads (like this one) and no, didn't get the email of notifications either now or earlier. Hotmail.com account, been working reliably throughout all the other reports I've seen. Last email I got was actually 14th June. I can't even recall a message that was marked as spam before, and the links get a safe-link wrapper. But it just seems to me that they haven't hit the mail server. As part of this change you didn't move server IP address did you? I did note you have an SPF record with an IP address listed,

"v=spf1 +a +mx +ip4:209.95.48.51 ~all"

and that seems to match www's IP address, which looks right, assuming the emails originate from the www server and not a secondary one?

I just clicked on NEW POSTS and got a heap of threads from the metal work forum preceding the woodworking posts.

Me too
We don't get WWF posts in the MWF so why do we get them the other way round

All my subs are still there and posts have been made, I added webmaster to my whitelist long ago when there was last a bout of no emails. I am still getting all the metalwork forum emails as normal. I'll try switching email addresses to gmail and see if that works.

EDIT: Turns out my gmail is already in use for another account. Not making another email just to get notifications from here
