Weekly Updates -what happened to them? How do I get them going again?
Jun 23 2009, 8:28 AM EDT | Post edited: Jun 23 2009, 8:28 AM EDT
I've seen a lot of questions but no answers about Updates -
When we first created our Wiki, our members would get emails notifying them when new members joined and when new threads were posted or replied to. Now, no one, including moderators, is receiving email updates on our Wiki activity. Has there been a change in Wetpaint procedures or is there someway we can correct this? Do you find this valuable?

There is an option that allows these notices to be sent. Check on your account settings to make sure that the option to send these is on. Do you find this valuable?

Wetpaint has so many people using and creating websites that their email server crashed and is unable to send email notifications. They are expecting not to get this fixed for a couple of weeks at the most. Do you find this valuable?

Andrew, I believe they have fixed this problem. Jason mentioned a while ago that the email notifications system was fixed. Do you find this valuable?

In the "Wetpaint Status" page, it says that it has not yet been fixed. Do you find this valuable?

Thanks for the comments but I checked the notification checkboxes and all were selected correctly. I followed 1#brave's link directions and 'reset' my email address - I see if this works. Where is the Wetpaint Status page?

That site hasn't had much activity on it. If there's been less than 5 contributions in a week, no Site Digest will be sent. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

We are using this website mainly as a hub for a local neighborhood crime watch. Many individuals look for the weekly summary while some have selected their preferences to be notified of any change. I can see where less we may have less than 5 changes in a week. I'll test this case and notify the group of this minimum for the Site Digest.
Thanks, Do you find this valuable?

Can you tell me where in the Account Settings I can turn on these notifications? I would like my members to be aware of new updates. Do you find this valuable?
