Why do I always get 2 notifications for everything?

HappyDaze — Fri, 13 Nov 2015 22:22:33 GMT

Am I the only one? It isn't because someone has edited the post either because I get at least two every time someone hearts or uses the @ mention with my name even when they haven't edited their post.

LOL. I get that too. I'm not sure it happens all the time but it sure does happen a lot.

Yeah, maybe it is isn't every single post but probably about 90% of them, like the one you just did- two notifications came at the same time. Grr..lol

You're right. I just got four notifications (the little pop-up box) for the same single heart from one poster given to just one of my posts.

haha! They webbies can't win, huh? lol! No they didn't fix it because sometimes you'll only get one. It is so random. I just now got two for another hearted post, lol.

A heart triggers one notification and the @ mention triggers another one. Combining the notifications together would be great, but I doubt it will ever happen.

@no I am not talking about that, as I already know that. I am talking about if someone hearts a post ONLY and yet I get two notifications that that person hearted a post. Same with the @ mention, even though they didn't edit their post.

@I see more than one pop-up telling me I've received a heart or an @notification, and I also sometimes see more than one addition to my "Notification Feed." The best I can tell, it's random (other than, as you say, when people edit posts and sometimes trigger multiple, duplicate notices). I don't see it as a problem (not saying anyone is)... I'd rather they concentrate on the other glitches.

I wondered if the double notification had to do with when you quote a post and then put the person's name in there again.

Someone want to test that out?

@VaBelle35 @HappyDaze and @HappyDaze, I've been wondering about that as well.

I have the feeling that all of these reasons create multiple notifications.

It would be great if the moderators could check this out.

Additionally, In the past few days, I've started trying to remember fo take the "@" off of a notification if I go back and revise it. That way, the system shouldn't generate a second notification. -- It sounds as though I should also quickly scan the orignial post (if I'm quoting it in my reply) and delete the "@" there as well (unless I want that poster to also receive a notification of my reply).

It's a new added step but I'm trying to remember to do it.
