Forum Related Technical Questions

Sorry, I mostly frequent this area of the forum, so posting the question here. If it needs to be moved to a more appropriate section then no worries.

I have to know what some functionalities of the forum work like.

 

There is a FOLLOW button on top of each forum section and then also in each thread which is created... you get notified about it when someone replies in that thread? is that how it works?

 

and secondly, when someone usertags you in a reply... does that give you a notification? I don't get any notifications when that happens...

 

and lastly, there is a "notify me of replies" when creating a thread or replying to a thread... when does that kick in? if someone quotes your post and replies to that?

 

sorry for this side post... just want to be able to understand the usage of it. thanks.

Yes, it should give you a notification. Check your notification settings.

If you follow a thread, it should notify you as soon as anyone replies to that thread, regardless of whether or not they quoted you/name-tagged you.

@How to be wise thank you  

 

lol. in asking of this, i just also realized now that i tend to do this with practices too... like to think about and read more or watch videos instead of doing it and figurining it out in my direct experience haha  

 

thanks again!
