Problem With Quote Notifications Count Badge - Just Me?

It's the same for me. One quote notification pretty much all the time.

 

So, it's 1 or 0 for you? Never greater than 1 even though you have more than 1?

I've had it show more than 1 at a time, I think 2; I don't get quoted very often.

But along the lines of quote notifications, I would like to see an improvement in the time the system takes to show when you've been quoted. I've seen it anywhere from a few minutes to several hours.

The shortest amount of time possible to make it happen would be desirable, but consistency is even more desirable. If it's going to be 5 minutes until notification or 2 hours, it should always be that way.

 

the script that counts 'em is supposed to run every 10 minutes.

Alrighty.

Your quote of mine, took about 7 minutes according to my clock. I'll pay closer attention to the times on future ones and see if there is any further differences.

 

I'll look into it.

Here's an update:

Quote Notifications list is showing 3 new quotes all within a short time span. The 'Your Notifications' are displaying only 2. yet, when I clicked over to the thread "Post your Funny WiFi Router Names," I was only quoted once and not twice as listed. So the "Your Notifications" count is correct, but the list is incorrect.

Unless, it's because the person who quoted me, had edited their post after the initial post, which caused it to log a second time. But the edit was 11 minutes after the initial post.



EDIT: Wait, I just noticed he posted two consecutive posts which were merged.

 

If you're still looking for issues regarding the Quote Notifications count, I had three waiting for me this morning and it only was showing one.

 

Another 3 notifications waiting for me this morning and displayed only 1. I understand the admins are already looking into this, and I really don't like beating a dead horse, but the reason for another post is to promote a new idea concerning it below.

I think a good feature to have regarding this, is when there aren't any active or unread Quote Notifications, that the link still appear under the Private Messages title so that you can get to the list of already read Quote Notifications, rather than have to go to User CP to get to them.

Perhaps even rename the persistent Private Messages to Your Notifications, which would encompass both Private Messages and Quote Notifications.
