    Invited to my gmail and hotmail account, which most of my team use ... no email

    Anyone else have success to these hosts? Yes, checked junk/spam

    Yep, sure did during testing. Can you PM or Whisper me your campaign page so I can take a further look here and see what the hold up might be?

    Forum and Wiki emails are working almost instantaneously to Gmail accounts. Woohoo!!

    @twigs - Hey man, are you available for some direct testing so we can try and isolate why you are still having issues with the emails?

    Hmm... Just tried to invite myself to my campaign using a different email address than my main one and it didn't show up.

    Hi Bluesguy,

    Any chance either is Gmail or Hotmail (or live / outlook)?

    I assume Junk was checked. Otherwise, I am seeing the same issues to fellow gmail accounts .. finally they got it working to my personal one. The question is the code working, just the provider sending out through - is that the issue. Time will tell

    Ok, so it is starting to sound like the Campaign Invite emails may be intermittently working based on these reports. From what I gather as well it does not appear to be isolated to any particular mail provider as it seems folks have reported this across Yahoo, Hotmail, Outlook, and Gmail. I am compiling a report for tech right now so we can look into these instances, so we will get it sorted out but it may take a moment since this now seems intermittent which is infinitely more difficult to track down but it is doable. I have a few more reports to look over pertaining to other notifications that seem to be having some intermittent success as well, though the others seem to be much more isolated than what is being reported with Invites.

    I would also like to report that campaign invites still aren't working: neither gmail, nor to accounts.

    Oddly, 1 of the 4 ppl with accounts DID join after seeing a notification on their OP account profile, but had not received an email. But only 1 of 4, the others have not received anything by email or on OP.
  • Unknown
    Drop me a link for your campaign in PM or here and I will add it to the list of items for the tech team to look at that are still lingering.

    Oookay. Some things seemed to have changed between this morning and now. I resent an invite to myself (at a dif email) an hour ago that worked immediately. I then resent invites to everyone on the list and one other has finally joined. Waiting on other players to check their notifications/emails.
    Gotta say tho, despite the recurring issues, you guys are handling it wonderfully. Constant updates, open communication and butt-loads of patience. Thanks for all the hard work you guys do!

    Thanks much, dropping your campaign on the list for tech to check out directly.

    Habe einen Spieler in die Kampagne "Bloodrain" eingeladen. Trotz mehrerer Versuche und Erinnerungen hat er keine Einladung bekommen (web.de).

    Habe ausserdem zwei reaktivierte Spieler die Ihr Passwort nicht mehr kennen und keine Email auf die Neuanfrage Ihres Passwortes bekommen.

    Google suggests:

    Have invited in the campaign "Blood Rain" a player. Despite several attempts and memories he has no invitation get (web.de).

    Had also reactivated two players no longer know your password and receive an email on the ReAsk your password.

    Hi Raiser.
    Thanks for the report. If I misquoted you, I apologize.

    Krothos, If I'm reading this correctly (and google translate is working), Raiser tried to invite a player into his Bloodrain campaign. He did not receive the invite (despite multiple attempts) and the email address was at web.de
    In addition, when his players tried to recover his lost passwords, he never got the password recovery email.

    So far as I know, Raiser is the first one to report the password recovery mechanism not sending a proper email.

    Raiser is not the only one, but Alex is aware- they are in the help area.

    Just trying to help out.

    Thanks Ketherian for the translation. All correct.
    The problem with trying to recover the lost password happend to two persons. The first one was doing something wrong i suspected, but after the second person told me the same and I stumbled about this thread I link it to the email-problem.

    If it helps I can wisper you the player names and emailadresses.

    If you could toss in the link to your campaign page with that it would be most appreciated. The more details we have the easier it is to investigate.

    I'm going to throw my campaign in the hat as well:

    https://shadow-paths.obsidianportal.com/

    I'm having the same problem as most people here; invite recipients aren't receiving an invite regardless of whether they were addressed to an OP account or just an email address.

    You guys seem to be participating actively in this forum, which is encouraging. I just created my campaign 2 days ago and I'm really looking forward to using OP for my game.

    I would also like to report similar symptoms on my campaign re: emails not being sent, even as recently as today. My group is experiencing it as "no email" being the norm, with one or two emails received in total (one invitation received, and I think I got one notification email about editing a page).

    Hey folks, sorry I have not been on as much the last little bit here, still getting adjusted to some of my new responsibilities here.

    I grabbed the links to your campaigns and passed them to the Tech Team to look at (had Andrew's from a support ticket). I am doing a status report with them later today on what they are finding so I will kick back a report.

    I am also behind on updating the blog, I apologize about this as well and will be working up a update this week to roll out for everyone.

    Alex, thanks for the reply. Sorry if my report was a bit snippy; I was just frustrated. I'm fine with waiting on a real fix as long as I can see it's actually being worked on. Status reports are much appreciated; keep them coming.

    Having the same issue. First time user here, so it sucks to not be able to get my players in here... and right after I ascended I find this out >.<
    I hope you guys can fix it.
  • Unknown
    Thanks for reporting Attaxer. We have a fix lined up already, but I am adding you to the list to be safe. We should have the fix rolled out this week for those still having issues based on my report from the tech team.

    Andrew, you weren't snippy, just wanted to make sure it was clear I had you.

    Is there a commonality in the campaigns that are not working?

    Just trying to help out.
