The Ability To Receive Notifications When A Poster Responds Directly To Your Post

I'm on several non-sports related forums and appreciate the fact that I get alerted whenever someone replies to my posts.

I believe all of those forums use Xenforo, so I'm not sure VBulletin even has this capability. Nor do I know if this would create more backoffice "work" than does the "Likes" notification. Doesn't seem so in the Xenforo forums I'm on. :idk:

Anyway, IMO this would be a nice feature if feasible. Your thoughts?

 

I think what you're saying Daytona is that you will run it up the flagpole and see just how many figures are used to salute it, eh?

 

Nice post bro! Lol

 

Here's an example of what I mean redacted but from another forum.. What's also nice is that the most recent set of "alerts" drop down when hovered over instead of having to be opened in another page

 

Thanks Fishy. Don't want to gum up the works, although one of the boards I'm on has thousands on at night, is also graphics-intensive and never seems to bog down. I know they made the transition from vbulletin to xenforo a few generations of Xenforo upgrades back, as have several others, and it seems to be the forum software of choice. :idk:

This might be my most impactful recommendation since suggesting automatically turning "Sanchez" into "buttfumble"

 

I must say I don't care for this. I like the idea in theory, but PMs show up as separate windows and to clear the notifications you have to click on each individual PM. Already in the pofo I've taken to not quoting the posts of people I'm talking to so as to avoid crowding their inbox (and vice versa).
