The Trip PM (Private Message) feature of the SingleDivers.com Forums *usually* sends a courtesy copy email to your email address:

 

Messages are sent via the Forum's PM system to only the recipients specified i.e. the trip goers; this provides limited visibility as the information is specific to trip attendees only. A courtesy copy email is generated to the email address associated with Member Profiles. the email message includes a canned subject line entitled "WreckWench has started a personal conversation" or "WreckWench has replied to a personal conversation".

 

HOW DO I SEE ALL THE PM UPDATES IF I AM ADDED LATER OR UNSURE I RECEIVED ALL UPDATES?

 

The updates which are sent in the email notices remain resident on the site. You can see them by logging in and looking up in the upper right corner where you see your screen name. Look to the left for an envelope icon or use the drop down menu and choose PERSONAL MESSENGER to take you to the PM system. There you will see PM's sent to your Member Name entitled DO NOT DELETE Belize 2019 PM and you can send and receive PM's with other trip goers.

 

LET US KNOW YOU GOT IT!

 

Please post in this topic you are currently reading to let us know you have accessed and reviewed the OFFICIAL TRIP PM  aka the TRIP PM aka "DO NOT DELETE Belize 2019 PM"

 

WHY BOTHER?

 

This is the PRIMARY way we communicate with everyone on a trip at the same time with exactly the same information that can be accessed 24x7x365. It is IMPERATIVE THAT YOU DO NOT DELETE IT OR EVEN A DUPLICATE POST...we'll fix the duplicate post because 99% of the time you will delete the entire message and you CAN NEVER BE ADDED BACK. PLEASE :pray: do not attempt to delete a duplicate post nor the message NOR THE CONVERSATION as we can not add you back but most importantly...you will not receive the important trip update you need to receive.

 

NOTE: We can not add you to the TRIP PM until your membership is upgraded. This is why we now require your membership to be upgraded BEFORE you can book a trip. Then when you book we can add you to the trip pm vs trying to remember to do so after you upgraded. Clearly the latter had too many chances to miss someone.  THIS ALSO MEANS IF YOUR MEMBERSHIP EXPIRES PRIOR TO THE TRIP YOU REALLY NEED TO RENEW IT IN ORDER TO GET THESE MESSAGES. ALL TRIP UPDATES ARE VIA THESE MESSAGES.

 

Thank you for helping us TO HELP YOU!!! :respect:

I have NOT received a PM 

 

Sharon we found you last accessed the Belize Trip PM in late Aug 2018. We also noticed next to your Member Name in the list of those in the Trip PM, it reads "NO NOTIFICATIONS". This feature can only be implemented by the Member and cannot be not done by an Admin. Unfortunately cannot be reversed by the member or an admin once it is selected (one of the few flaws in the PM functionality, never changed by the IP Board system which hosts the Forums). Since some members to not receive the email notifications, which we understand can become voluminous as a trip is about to start, we leave the feature available to everyone even though we caution in the PM initial post repeatedly to leave notifications on.

 

However this is one of the reasons we created this topic, to provide an opportunity for members who sense they should be receiving PM notices to let us know. Now that you know the system is not sending you email notices, simply log in and review the PM periodically. We will also re-send the original extra email titled "You've Been Added to the Belize Liveaboard 2019 Trip PM" that includes steps on how to access the PM manually; it will include an actual direct link to the Belize Trip PM itself to save you a few mouse clicks/keystrokes (the system will require you to log in then it will go directly to the PM).

 

Sorry for any inconvenience and hope this helps! :diver:
