Description Redrose64 2012-05-08 20:53:13 UTC
Since the upgrade of en.wikipedia to 1.20wmf2, changes to my user talk page no longer trigger the orange "You have new messages" box. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#You_have_new_messages_failure
Comment 1 Mark A. Hershberger 2012-05-09 15:52:19 UTC

Hi, re this edit: no, I didn't get the orange banner "You have new messages (last change)." I have carried out some further tests:
To eliminate a recent upgrade to Firefox 12 as a possibility, I started up other browsers (IE 7 and Safari 5.1), and then logged in on those with the same result: no "You have new messages" banner.
To see if it's something to do with my PC in general, or with my IP address, I created account Redrose64a (talk ยท contribs) (per WP:SOCK#LEGIT) and then used each account to send a message to the other. Redrose64a immediately got the "You have new messages" banner; Redrose64 did not.
I suspect that it's something to do with user settings or rights, but I don't see anything in "My preferences" that might control the banner. I was wondering about CSS classes: the full HTML for the banner received by Redrose64a is:
<!-- newtalk -->
<div class="usermessage"><span id="mw-youhavenewmessages">You have 
<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Redrose64a&amp;redirect=no" title="User talk:Redrose64a">new messages</a> 
(<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Redrose64a&amp;diff=cur" title="User talk:Redrose64a">last change</a>).</span></div>
<!-- /newtalk -->
I've added some line breaks after certain spaces, so that it doesn't flow off the right margin. --Redrose64 (talk) 19:46, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Does anybody know if this still has happened recently?

(Plus moving to Echo)
