EDITING BUG!!! And other bugs! Showing 151-200 of 1,073

[Helen]

Is anyone else getting heaps of email notifications over the last few days, looks like they are trying to catch up and get up to date, the last one I got was dated April 28th, fingers crossed the have it fixed and get back to my daily email :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Yes Helen, I've received about 10 so far - I'm just deleting them as they come in. But I also just realised the notifications aren't quite on track yet. I've missed a few from about 2 hours ago :( Including this one!

[Helen]

I have been deleting as well hopefully it won't be too long and they will be back to normal

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Fingers crossed!

[Trish L]

I am on daily digest and after Easter they just dried up. In the last 4 days I have had 17 digests ! Unbelievable !

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Ditto Trish :)

[Leonie]

I was getting notifications, but then they all vanished again! 🤦🏽‍♀️ Sigh...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Really?? I'd better check then Leonie....

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

No mine seem to be okay - at the moment anyway. Hope yours are back soon!

[Leonie]

Turned out my email address (once again) became suddenly 'unverified.' I have now reverified it. This seems to happen about every two years.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I remember you saying that some time back - I wonder what causes it to happen? Strange - and annoying!

I wish I knew! Sigh...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Keeps you on your toes :)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

New problem as of this morning.
If you put any html code in your message (this includes hitting the reply button) then your message will not go through.

Temporary solution is to type your message without html - post it - edit it - add the html.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Thank for finding that one early..whatever next!!

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Jonetta put me on to it. If your messages are not posting it's good to know the reason why! Must have taken her a while to sort out when it first started happening.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

It must have been overnight for us. Good on her..

[PattyMacDotComma]

Is anyone else having trouble replying to comments on their own reviews? It's been happening to me since last night, and my replies just keep spinning around and nothing.

I've signed out and in again, turned the laptop on and off again, etc, but no luck. I like to acknowledge and thank anyone who's bothered to say something, but I can't. Or maybe it's that I'm replying which includes part of the person's comment and that's got HTML in it. Hmmm.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Did you read the comments directly about Patty?

[PattyMacDotComma]

Yes, that was the problem, that I can't reply and include the markup that forms part of the person's comment. I can hit Reply (so I hope they're notified that I replied) and then delete the markup.

How odd!

Write your answer first, then post. Then edit your post, hit reply, then hit 'edit post' and you have it.

[Dale]

Thanks for that. I had been having the same problem the last couple of days. Your answer solved it, Brenda.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Hopefully we won't have to keep doing that for long Dale!

Thanks. Brenda. I'll try that now so that it includes your 'quote'.

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Brenda wrote: "Hopefully we won't have to keep doing that for long Dale!"

It seems to be fixed now :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Yay! That didn't take them long :)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Luckily!

Hoo-bl**dy-ray!!

[Janelle]

Looks like my notifications are a good 7 or 8 hours behind….is this happening to everyone or just me?

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Not to me Janelle, hopefully they'll be right for you soon.

[Janelle]

Thanks Brenda. It’s still happening to me but hopefully it’ll fix itself. I just tapped the bell and the message it says was 12mins ago was actually over 9hrs ago! Crazy and annoying.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

It is annoying! And I do hope it's not the beginning of another of their glitches! Good luck with the quick return to current notifications Janelle :)

Me too - I think it's been like it for at least about 3 days now...? I'm pretty sure I checked "unread" topics in my groups on Friday and found there were unread messages in some threads that I'm subscribed to and that I'd received no notifications for! If I'm on the desktop, I just click on the "community" tab, and discussions, and then can see threads with recent comments in my various groups. In the app it's a bit more of a hassle since I have to go into each group individually!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

For those who aren't getting email notifications (I'm one) I just found this in the Help section. Not sure why it's only affecting some and not others though...

1) Members not receiving Goodreads email notifications about new comments. We have temporarily disabled comment notifications from Goodreads emails because we detected a suspicious pattern of comment activity from some accounts. You can still view notifications by logging into your account, and we'll provide an update once this has been fixed.

That would be me. Sigh...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I'm really glad it's not just me Leonie. That's why I checked the Help section to see if it was a 'thing'!!

[Leonie]

Brenda wrote: "I'm really glad it's not just me Leonie. That's why I checked the Help section to see if it was a 'thing'!!"

Yes, I just realised that I hadn't had any emails, so checked my email address, which was (miracle of all miracles) still verified...and then came here to see if there was any info.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Mmmm! I wish they would hurry and fix it... it's a nuisance!

[Leonie]

Me too! Since my notifications continue to be non-existent.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Same 😪

[Leonie]

I have notifications again!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Yes, me too. But when I open the email the message is blank. Is that happening to you Leonie?



This is what they all look like since the notifications returned.

Yes!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Well, at least that means it's not my computer or my issue alone! Now to get GR to fix this problem! .................

🤷‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

There's nowhere on help that's talking about this - the last was the explanation of turning the notifications off and they would 'let us know when it was fixed'. So not sure what to do now!! Wait and hope I guess!!

[Leonie]

Has anyone else lost their email notifications again?

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Yes - yesterday afternoon :(

[Leonie]

Brenda wrote: "Yes - yesterday afternoon :("

Sigh...

[Leonie]

No info on notifications coming back yet?
