I have added another check box for you in the Manage Profile menu. It is called To Comment and it will notify you when your partner has left you a comment. It should not Email you when you are the one leaving the comment and I have tested it myself to be working correctly in that regard.

If you want to be notified by Email of comments you need to set this up in the Manage Profile menu as it is set to OFF by default.

I think that it should be ON by default, lots of people don't login here regularly.

thanks for the new feature

Anyone else want to weigh in on being on by default?

Yeah, set it to "On" & then people can turn it off if they want.

Turning it on makes good sense. If it annoys someone, they can turn it off.

I guess it has a link right in the email to turn it off.. so it is on for now...

Hmm... I need to make the system send you back to the page you were on if you weren't logged in... ie, login screen sends you back to the page you were trying to access.

I think it should be ON by default.

I think I'm now disabling it for a while cause in these days I'm logged the whole day and I've all the other alerts on. But it is an important feature, I'll put in on again as I can back to a less frenetic linkspun activity : )

I have a feeling a lot more users are going to be blocked because of this feature...

A lot of people like to leave a "note" with their request... When I get 30 emails with these notes it is usually a good indication the users that sent them should just be blocked...

I'm having the same idea... I'm one of those who often add a comment to the trade requests...

I have an idea to make this feature a bit better, but there will be some extra work for you... At the trade request an user should NOT get two emails... best solution, when requesting a trade, would be to always add the comment (if any) to the trade request email.

Workaround: when a user press REQUEST TRADE the system could act like this:


IF NOTIFY_TRADE_REQUEST = TRUE then

send message (trade request including comment)

ELSE IF NOTIFY_COMMENT_REQUEST = TRUE then

send message (comment only)

END IF


another solution could be:


IF ( NOTIFY_TRADE_REQUEST = TRUE ) or ( NOTIFY_COMMENT_REQUEST = TRUE ) then

send message (trade request including comment)

END IF


Just one email, less mail for us and less server work. Maybe the second solution is better...

I just set it to only send a comment if the user is actually making a comment, not a request, deny, etc...

I've not tested as receiving end... still trying to figure how it works... you mean... if somebody send me a request with a comment, will I just get the trade request email ? or a trade request email + a comment email ?

You only get a comment email when somebody leaves only a comment... If they include the comment into a request, deny, etc, you only get that email without a comment email.

Ah, that's fine.
