Hi, has keyword alerts been enhanced away / not working?

Good question, actually. To my knowledge that's not a very popular feature, so I'll find out if that was impacted by this or if we disabled it at some earlier point

HI IBJoel,

The last alert email I got was June 6th 6pm (spain time) and the OP was 2 hours later, so I thought post hoc...

Thank you!

I'm sure you have access to better data than my guesswork, but the lack of Trending plus no quotes notifications has probably reduced my time on FT by at least 50%.

:(

I also don't receive notifications when people respond to my posts.

I’m experiencing an inconsequential, but rather odd, issue in Safari on my iPad. I have the pref set to FT Desktop NG, but whenever I open FlyerTalk in a new window, I initially see the Mobile One skin. When I navigate to another page on the site, that page (and subsequent ones) appear in the Desktop skin.

As I wrote, it’s ultimately inconsequential but it may provide a clue as to the root cause of other strange behaviors.

Keyword alerts have been turned on: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/vend..._keyword_alert
I actually wonder if you could add your own username to the alerts and get notifications when someone quotes you that way

I'll try it and advise how it goes.

Thank you!

This exact scenario just started happening to me a couple weeks ago. I haven’t changed anything with cookies or ad-blocks.
Anyway to fix this?

Update: Keyword alerts do seem to work if your keyword is your username. You can set an email alert for hourly, daily, or weekly. An interesting kludge.

That feature was discontinued when the JUNE 6TH, 2024 UPDATE was rolled out:

Yes indeed, it does work. As DenverBrian said, what a kludge - but it works.

I can personally confirm that a Tracked Keyword Alert (Daily) also works to report quotes of a username which includes a space in the middle. ;) :tu:

However, using Android on my cell phone, I cannot see a way to delete this Private Message (PM), unlike all other previous PMs.
:confused:

Does this inability to delete the tracking reports mean they could fill up my PM Inbox such that I won't be able to send any more PMs? :eek:

To be safer I have change my Tracked Keyword Alert from Daily to Weekly.

I suppose, to be really safe, I could change the notification method from PM to e-mail, if we cannot find a method to delete the PMs such that they don't fill up my PM Inbox.

For what it’s worth, I have not received a single notification for notquiteaff style mentions since the quote notification feature was removed. Definitely not a workaround.
