I think it will be a good idea if when your forum post gets a reply, it says 1 new message when you log on. Thought it will be a good idea.  smile

Re: Forum Reply Message

Yeah, I would like that, but it could overfill your message box if you have a topic that gets or has tons of replies. You could have an option, like check boxes:

[_] Send me messages when one of my galleries receives a new comment.
[_] Send me messages when one of my forum topics receives a new reply.
[_] Send me a message when one of my projects or comments gets flagged.
[_] Send me a message when one of my projects gets removed.

Yeah. But if I flagged a project I wouldn't want that person to know that I did.

Then it says "your project _______________ has been flagged by _____________"

Re: Forum Reply Message

We already have something like this, go to the bottom of the forums page and it says Show Your Post, then you can tell if someone replied. But it isnt a bad idea

Re: Forum Reply Message

The forums and the rest of the website are different from each other so you can't really have messages from the forums like the rest of the website.

It's true, they are different.  But they could be made to work together (maybe).  That's something Andres would have to answer for sure. 

I think it would be a useful feature.  We used to be able to Subscribe to Forum threads and then we would get email when there were new posts.  That feature broke somewhere along the line.  And not everybody has email either.

Re: Forum Reply Message

So in the near future, Scratchers may see a message that says 'your forum topic _____ has been replied to by_____'

Re: Forum Reply Message

Well, maybe it could have another option saying if you want the other user to know it was you...

Re: Forum Reply Message

Seeing that so many people agree, we just need to wait until someone of the Scratchteam visits this forum post and hopefully will make this idea work.

Interesting suggestion...we are always looking for ways to improve the site.  While we can't always take every request, we like to meet our community needs.  I will pass this along to our site developers for consideration.

Thanks!

Will it take long for the idea to be put on the actual website.
