Is there any way to turn off notifications? I get a number over the notifications here on Wheekers, which I've always gotten. Now the same notifications are showing up on my email, and I really don't need that. I'd like to stop them coming through my email. Any idea how to do that?

Go to your profile (click on your name), choose 'edit profile from the top right' and then click on the 'notifications' tab. There's a column for email notifications and you can select 'never' for any updates you don't want to receive notifications about.
That's odd that you're suddenly getting emails about stuff you didn't before. Like you, I get some notifications on the forum, but have never received emails. I wonder if some kind of update has caused a glitch? Hope you get it sorted with this - let me know if not.

I have all but the staff emergencies set to "Never." Not sure what else to do.

That's odd. I've had a quick search but keep finding people complaining about not getting email notifications when they want to - will look again when I'm more awake.

Thanks. Vic was totally done in by the time he came in last night, so I didn't ask him to look into it. I will see if he can find time tonight.

Do the emails have any links to/ info on to changing your preferences, or is it just to the page you've already checked? I've never had an email notification from Wheekers, so am not sure what's on the email.

I'm getting the same email notifications of every LIKE and QUOTE, that I was getting on the PROFILE tab at the top of the page on Wheekers. Now I'm not getting it on the PROFILE tab at the top of the page on Wheekers, but I've gotten 11 email message of LIKES and QUOTES in my inbox. I really don't need any notifications of such things at all. I like knowing when a new member has joined, but I will be checking the threads and seeing the quotes, without being notified. While it's nice to have people like my posts, I don't need to know about them endlessly. I think to check the thumbs up on posts every once in a while.

Are you setting the notifications from a pc or your phone? I'm wondering if some phone app software might be glitchy, as a few people have had issues with things not working the same with apps. I've tried looking in your profile, but the notification options don't come up for me. I'd maybe try (from a pc) changing the notifications to something like weekly, saving it, and then changing them back to never and see if that wakes it up. There's a support forum for proboards, and if it persists it might be worth posting in there - I could do it on your behalf, but they'd probably want more information that I'd have to then ask you for, so it might be more straight forward if you ask directly. Maybe hub has already fixed it by now, you can but hope!

I'm getting the notifications on my email, so I get that on the laptop, tablet and phone. I just realized all of the notifications are coming from Tapatalk, so I blocked emails from Tapatalk, or I think I have. I'll have to wait to see if any more notifications come. That seemed like the best way, just filter out those emails from the email end, rather than trying to stop them from being sent. I had 15 notifications when I finally set the filter, so I hope it works.

That must be annoying - let me know if blocking the Tapatalk emails works.

No new notifications, so I think it worked. I'll check the Wheekers posts, and if those people posted, I didn't get any notifications

Glad it seems to have worked, that's a relief for you!
