    If you scroll through your "alerts" you will probably see that you were gifted a subscription.

    At least that's where I found it, not sure if it will show if made anonymously.

    Ah OK, even though I have alerts turned on I have not received them for quite a while so I am not sure who gifted me a subscription, does anyone know how to turn alerts back on? I have tried turning them off and then on again just now.
    Also whoever gifted me the sub can they let me know because I would like to say a big thank you!
    Cheers, Michael

    I actually didn’t know they could be turned off. For me, shows on the “Latest” tab, then click “alerts” to see the list.

    Yup. Two ways. The first is when you participate in a thread. You can either "follow" (under OF Ad in below screenshot) which produces notifications for specific threads or "unfollow" to opt out of said notifications.

    Or, you go to account settings and either check or uncheck those boxes.

    You will still receive alerts when people quote or like a post you make but you can turn off alerts for people just regularly commenting on a post you have participated in.

    Well, well, well!
    I never knew that!
    Thank you.
    I used to get email alerts when someone messaged me but I haven't for a while now.
    I never knew about the alerts you mention but now can see who has gifted me the subscription and have thanked them, I can sleep well tonight now.
    Many thanks all!
    Cheers, Michael

    Yup, aware of that thanks, but probably wasn’t clear in my post that I was referring to the “like” and “quote” alerts. :thumbsup:

    A drop in a large bucket considering all the help that Michael has afforded me since I wandered into this place.
    Not needed really as Michael would easily have figured out this upgrade business himself.............in July.:D

    Happy to support the forum costs. Motivated that the OF resource is here for the people who've given me invaluable advice, as well as real, actual, money-saving advice over the last couple of years. It is those members who make this forum what it is. You guys are the best.

    Except [redacted]. Fuck that guy.

    ;)

    Not complaining here...but just saying, these ads are getting more aggressive.

    We’re still fine tuning it after changing providers, that’s about the worst case scenario though on latest posts, it should be a lot better everywhere else in places like thread view etc

    Ads started this morning in Germany: may I introduce my personal Shoe-Forum ? ;-)
    No problem, paying for an ad-free yearly subscription!

    But please "fine tune" this, since this is a real threat to OF
    All the other members or forum guests should also have that unique OF-experience, we all loved for years.

    Many thanks to all admins,
    best regards
    Stefan

    Yea latest there is really the one that stands out the most because its meant to be 6 items before the first inline not 2, it might take us a few days to resolve as we’ve had to change everything but we’re working on it.
