    Quotes

    Is there a way to be notified if you have been quoted in a post? Or do I just have to pay attention...

    Re: Quotes

    I don't think there's a 'quote alert' so to speak unfortunately, I could certainly do with one. If I'm wrong and there is one I'd dearly love to know about it.

      Not that I know of. Not even sure if there is a forum modification that can be made for that, Juni might know more.

        In general, software exists that can manage it. I've seen forums that can do it.

        Specifically regarding PF...

        The forums I've seen this trick on are running on Xenforo. PF runs on VBulletin. I have no idea if any existing VB mod can manage it.
        life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

        Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

        "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

        John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

        "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

          Simple Machines forums have a button labeled "New replies to your posts" at the top, which I guess is what you mean, basically. They also have a weird thing, I just learned, where if an account is deleted, it can delete months of everyone's posts.

              VBulletin doesn't support notifications on quotes, that I'm aware of but I'll look around and see if there's a mod and what it will entail to implement it.

              On PF? Or somewhere else?

                It would be awesome if we could get a quote alert, but no worries if not.

                  There is I guess "Subscribe" but I am not sure what that entails. On the programming site that uses Simple Machines If you have posted in a thread,it can email you when someone posts in said thread. You do not have to be the starter of the thread.

                  I was kinda wondering what Subscribe does BTW

                    Being emailed because someone quoted you is vastly different than being emailed because you're subscribed to a thread.

                      Its the same. It notifies you if someone posts in the thread.
