Hearing The Postal Service, Sleeping In
Hi folks -- sorry, overdue on a status update: New Entry and Comment Added Alerts are still displaying problems (though, again, not for everyone); the Journals teams and the Alerts teams are poring over the relevant logs to try to find the problem.
I'm trying to help coordinate efforts, though I can't be sure I'm not just getting in the way. Indications seem to point to a problem on the Alerts back end, but it's not certain yet.
We'll keep you posted -- sorry for the inconvenience.
On an unrelated note, I just got word from the Journals database folks that they'll be working with the Journals database servers tomorrow morning during the 4-6AM ET install window, as part of normal database maintenance.
Journals will be down for about 5-10 minutes within this window, so it shouldn't be a big deal.
Thanks -- Joe

Asssuming you still want to know, as of 6:45 am EDT. I still am not receiving new entry alerts. It's been almost a week now. I know there have been new entries because I checked through my "Favorites" list.

I think if you go into your alerts to edit them and turn them all on again one by one, it might work.

The last time this happened, that's what I had to do... Then again, Joe, you might need to do another entry on feed readers, huh?

Hi, everything was fine for me until I followed the advice of some new mates (bloggers) telling me how I could receive alerts when they were editing new topics. before that, my alert was only for myself when I received some responses from others. As soon as I went onto other journals and click on their alert, I stopped receiving the alert for the messages I was receiving for my blog. Hope it makes sense, perhaps not helpful, perhaps helpful.

If journals are having a back-end problem, it's probably the result of all the crap I've been writing lately.
Sorry, man... I couldn't resist. You knew someone was going to say it, right? RIGHT?
