Does anyone know...?

Hello, everyone!

Like every person in the Universe - and their mother - I've somewhat migrated to DW with synchronised posting to LJ - and to be honest, I'm kind of hating it because I haven't managed to study all the settings and whatnots of it.

Does anyone know if there is a setting DW where you can set for the DW to alert you with an e-mail that your DW friend(s) have posted something? I honestly don't even remember browsing through Friends page and I'm afraid that I'm going to lose contact with most of you because I simply won't be nudged enough to follow what you guys have been up to.

That's how I had it set up with LJ - and if you still cross-post there, I'll see it - and that's how I'd like to have it set up in DW. I'm afraid I'll fall out of touch with everyone if I have to go browsing over my friends' page simply because I won't remember to in all my busy-ness.

I'll try to post a little update some time later in the week when my son is gone for school trip - I'm bound to have more time at some point! :)

*sends hugs to everyone across the fandom*

There is the Track Account function. If you use it, you get an email whenever the user makes a post. :)

I think the closest I've found to this is to "track" someone. Like, say I want a notification every time daily_snitch makes an entry. I go to the profile:

https://daily-snitch.dreamwidth.org/profile

And there's a little bell in the options along, 'leave this community, subscribe, join, etc.' Yes? SO you click on the little yellow bell and then you're showed a series of options including notifying you when there's a new entry. It also works for regular users. :)

Oh, thank you so much, you're a life saver! :) I'll try this right along! Who better than to save my fandom existence than the wonder-woman little you! *hugs you squishily*

Hi there!
Strange to see all the new layouts and get accustomed to them. Oh well, we'll manage sooner or later. Didn't know about the bell thing, but I need less not more notifications (I've subscribed to way too many brilliant authors on ao3 - LOL).
Anyway, good to see you. *hugs*
