This is not something I use so can't tell if it is working.
I do know at least one user that comes online after someone replies on one of their posts, usually from a spammer, so I think it works.
I just looked at the options in my UCP to see when you can get notifications. These are the options for the type you can set
Code: Select all
Someone replies to a topic you have bookmarked
Someone replies to a topic to which you are subscribed
Someone quotes you in a post
Someone creates a topic in a forum to which you are subscribed
Someone replies to a topic in a forum to which you are subscribed
There is no mention of notification on replies on created topics, maybe you have to subscribe to the topic first?
I don't know if you are meant to be automatically subscribed to your own topic, that may be another setting.
Looking though other options I saw "
Notify me upon replies by default:" in "
Edit posting defaults" but there is no email option.
The only email notification I have on is for PMs but I haven't been getting them, just checking what my email was set to and it was incorrect.
You should double check yours to be sure.
