    PMs

    Can anyone kindly tell me why, when I open the BBS page, it no longer shows a notification when I have a new PM?
    Thanks in hope.

    Don't know why but I do experience delays before they show after members have sent PMs.

    Kindest regards

    Do you have the ''Display a pop up'' option in your settings set to yes?

    Quite possible, I don't get too many ads, but no idea where to look to find out. It is to do with age!

    Funny you should say that.

    Just recently I've noticed that my "Private Message Notification Pop-up" only shows for about half a second before it gets closed.

    I've not installed any new software, so I assume (perhaps wrongly) that it's perhaps part of an auto-update to my web browser (?).

    I use Google Chrome.

    Yes, I have just found that that is exactly what mine does - it happens so quickly that I hadn't realised what was happening.

    Funny after reading this thread, I have just found out that mine isn't working either. I thought it strange that someone hadn't replied to me, but he had it just didn't notify me. Hmmm bloody nuisance that is.
