Tapatalk and forum alerts

[woodynorman]

A while back I tried using Tapatalk to browse the forum on my phone. At the time I linked Tapatalk to MacRumors. Immediately I started receiving forum alerts anytime anyone posts a new thread in the iPhone forum. This amounts to a 100 or more alerts every day, and any alerts I really do want to see get buried.

I have tried disconnecting MacRumors from Tapatalk, and the only alert settings I have set here are if someone replies to or quotes one of my posts.

But I still get alerts anytime anyone starts a new thread in the iPhone forum.

Can anyone help? Do the moderators view this forum? Thanks.

EDIT: just to clarify...the alerts I'm speaking of aren't through Tapatalk, but forum alerts accessed when you click the little flag above...

You can manage the alerts under that little flag at this link.

It also sounds like maybe you are "watching" the iPhone forum. Go to this link and to manage the notifications for that.

Thank you!! I was "watching" that forum. Turned it off and all is good again!

Interesting, I watch a number of forums but don't get any notifications of new threads in them. I believe there's a separate option to enable/disable that, but I don't quite recall where that is at the moment. (Of course simply not watching any forums essentially makes that setting kind of moot.)

If you go to that link there is a dropdown with some options.
