For some reason that I can't quite figure out yet, all of a sudden the links in subscribed emails aren't highlighted, and when I copy one, they don't work. Up until last week I never had that issue.

I also receive notifications from ARC, and their links still work, so it seems that the issue isn't on my end, or is it?

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve this?

Staff_jim has been working on changing the notifications system behind the scenes. While he's been doing that, some parts of the site aren't working properly. He'll let us know once everything is working properly once again.

Jessica,
Thanks so much for that information. This has been literally driving me nuts.

Jessica,
Any word or update from Jim as to when the subscription notifications will be once again working? I'm a creature of habit, and just miss clicking on the links in those emails.

If you look through your options in your e-mail client, you might find something like "automaticly parse hyperlinks" check box.

Jonathan,
Thanks for the heads up, but I also receive email notifications for ARC, and their links still work perfectly.

Once Jim has things ready he'll let us all know, and then you'll know. I'm sorry that I haven't got anything more precise than that. There's a thread in the Network Talk forum which you may wish to watch.

Jessica,
Thanks. I just read the thread, and posted my issues for Jim.

test post to see if changing my email settings to plain text will solve the issue.

Well, email notification no longer is a working feature for me. Jim has been done with the upgrade, and it seems that I'm not the only one who has been having issues with this feature no longer working. As I said, the feature does send a email notification, but the link no longer works (also it's no longer highlighted in blue). I'm sure that there was a reason for the upgrade, but I see no difference in the email nor how I receive it. Only that the link no longer works.

I've changed my settings as he suggested, but still it no longer works. And without the link working, the emails are basically useless to me. So I'll have to use the new post tab which is no where are useful, and just unsubscribe from the various threads that I already subscribed too.

Richard,
Glad to hear that.

Like I said, I've tried every setting I can, and none made any difference. It just means that I won't be following and replying to nearly as many threads as I've use to be doing, as I find the latest post threads not nearly as easy to stay current with.

I am with you Joel.

Maybe they could add a subscription button to the latest post thread.

Cheers Rob.
