push notifications no longer working?

Post by Jeff Mich »

starting today (Monday July 20, 2020) push notifications stopped mid-day (USA time). On all 3 of my chrome browsers (desktop, android phone, and android tablet)

going to

https://boardgamearena.com/preferences? ... ifications

all boxes are checked "yes" but I'm no longer seeing any browser subscriptions. I tried turning off then on the top "Enable notifications?" radio buttons.

I also checked my settings in chrome and I am "allow" notifications.

Am I really the only one? I hope this is the correct forum to post this?

Just checked it for Chrome and Firefox and it worked well for me (from the preferences / push notifications / send me a test notification)

thanks for the info. interestingly I had subscribed to my own post but didn't get notice you had replied!

I came back to report it looks like for some reason BGA lost all 3 of my subscriptions...

on desktop w/chrome browser I had to go back and change site setting for BGA to "ask" (from "allow") for notifications then go back to preferences/pushnotifications to re-subscribe and thus have chrome ask.

on android phone in chrome I couldn't go to "ask" and it was "allow" but going back to prefs/pushno... turning off then on did get that one back

I haven't tried on my stock android table but I assume it's same

hope this helps anyone who runs into this in the future!
