DJW Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Every since the forum went to the new format I keep getting a turn on notifications so they can send me notifications at the bottom. I am not going to turn on my notifications so is this just something I will need to live with. Has everyone else turned on their notifications? I assume once you turn it on it is not only turned on for the rvnetwork but for everyone else as well? Dennis USA Master Sergeant Ret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis The Missing Manual topic in About the Discussion Forums provides a link to a document that discusses both browser based notifications and the forum software notifications. This is a browser based notification request from Google chrome: The AM I The Only One that Sees This? topic discusses this for FireFox. Line 1 - ends with just the return (enter) key. Line 2 - ends with shift-return (shift-enter) key combination. Line 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RV_ Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Yep, I only got the notification for random websites when I switched to FireFox. Never see it in Edge or IE. MY guess is it is likely because they haven't built that in yet. It is a convenience for folks who post so many times a day in so many different places they can ignore until they get a response. It's a PITA for me too as I stick with only two websites and locked down social media on FB and Ello.

Ray,IN Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 I used to get the drop-down FireFox notifications box, but after selecting the correct option 3X, I no longer see the box. 2000 Winnebago Ultimate Freedom USQ40JD, ISC 8.3 Cummins 350, Spartan MM Chassis.

DJW Posted April 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 But I do not have FireFox installed on my computer so why I am getting this notification every time I log onto rvnetwork.com? Dennis USA Master Sergeant Ret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbaraok Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 DJW, what browser are you running and do you have things like Ad Blocker and a Flash control installed? Have you gone up under your name (top right hand corner) and go to Account Settings - there you will see where to click for "Notification" settings, far right after on the Account Settings page. Go through the list and click on no for receiving notifications. This interation of the software assumes that you are hanging on every i or t posted on the forums and your life will collapse if you aren't immediately notified.

DJW Posted April 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Barb I am using Edge in Win 10 Pro. I have everything turned off under the account settings/notification setting and I am still getting that notice every time I log onto rvnetwork.com? Dennis USA Master Sergeant Ret.

Barbaraok Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Somewhere in the browser setting should be a place where you can choose NOT to receive notifications (pushes) from web sites. Need to also turn it off there as well as under your account settings.

DJW Posted April 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Sorry Barb. I turned everything off but the laptop, changed everything you told me to look at and I am still getting that same msg? Dennis USA Master Sergeant Ret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbaraok Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Since you are running a different browser and system than I do, I'm out of suggestions. I'm pretty sure there is some where in the browser settings that you can set to not allow notifications, but have no idea where it would be.

DJW Posted April 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Barb Thanks I know you use apple products. There is and it is in the Notification section and I have the "do not send me notifications" box checked as well as every type of internal notifications turned off as well?

I'mdonewiththis forum Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Dennis, something you might try is to right click on the page you are on then click on View Page Info. You will see a dialog box with four tabs. Click on the one labeled Permissions and you can go through quite a few settings there and in may help.

Ray,IN Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Can you post a screen-shot of the notification? Mine has a small menu box where it says "always receive notifications", to the right of that verbage is a selection box you click, when you do it also shows "never receive notifications". When you click that verbage the pop-up box goes away. It reappeared 3X on my browser and each time I selected "no notifications" until the pop-up finally stopped. 2000 Winnebago Ultimate Freedom USQ40JD, ISC 8.3 Cummins 350, Spartan MM Chassis.

DuneElliot Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I use Opera and get these boxes pop up on new sites I haven't been to. I also have AdBlock installed.
