Email notifications for new strings not working

Greetings. Over the past few weeks, I have noticed that I no longer receive email notifications whenever new strings are added to the projects I am subscribed to.

I have checked my account settings, and the New Strings option for email is turned on, but locked (I am a free user). I do not use the Crowdin App.

I have also double-checked with other colleagues of the latest project to receive new strings if they received the notification email, just to verify that the project had the relevant setting enabled, and sure enough, they have sent me visual proof that they received their emails. Meanwhile, I still receive no new string notifications from Crowdin.

How could I solve this matter?

Hello @IlDucci

Can you kindly check your account settings → notification tab? Please ensure that all projects have “All notification” enabled + in Global account settings you need to turn on the Email checkbox (it would be about all other checkboxes)

I have checked all the projects and only one project was tagged as “Mentions only”. All the other projects, including the ones I was keeping an eye on with the proof I mentioned before, were marked as “Global”. I do not see a “All notifications” setting.

Hi @IlDucci!

  1. Ensure that you can receive emails from us in general (some mail clients can block external emails at all).

  2. Check the spam/junk folder for any Crowdin notifications that may have been filtered there.

If everything is correct, let us know.

My client was not blocking your emails (as my verification/password reset emails still appeared in my Inbox), but all the new Crowdin Community emails were thrown to the Spam folder.

EDIT: It appears that one of my projects was updated today and the New Strings email did reach me. I’ll still wait until the project I was manually keeping an eye on updates its strings before considering this issue solved.

Hi @IlDucci , great to hear that you’ve received notifications about new strings and, sure, you’re welcome to share updates about the second project. Also the owner/manager of the project should enable the notification for users about new strings in the Project settings:

The owners of both projects already had the notifications enabled on their end.

Anyway, I just got the new strings email from the project I was expecting, so everything is fixed now. Thanks for the help.

Hi @IlDucci ,

Glad to hear you are now getting notifications via email, thanks for letting us know! If you need additional help, we are always happy to help!
