I've just noticed a little bell on my Inbox tab.

I swear it wasn't there before, or am I just going doolally? I thought perhaps, it was a new facility to show I had a PM, as we previously got a little red dot on the tab, but sadly, I didn't have one. sad.

Can anyone enlighten me, please?

Hello - update from us. More investigation is needed to figure out why bells are ringing for some and not others. Fingers crossed will be sorted next week. Although in the meantime sounds like some people are discovering messages they weren't aware of. Which is nice. Have lovely weekends all smile

I haven't got a bell but after reading this thread I've got an ear worm.

"If I had a hammer......." ???

Oh! I want a bell. Why have I been left out?

Marydoll Sun 20-Sept-20 08:08:06

I think my bell may be working. I found loads of unopened, but read PMs from MissMarydoll's Maths class, since I could read the answers without opening.
I deleted the lot, but still have a bell.

Somewhere in the distant past, I must have an unread one, so it looks as if I may have a permanent bell, as I can't locate it.☹️
I bet you are all jealous.?

Interestingly, I had a bell so went into Inbox and trailed through all the PMs and found two unopened from Miss Marydoll back in the Maffs Klass days.

I’d guessed the right answer to the day’s question and her ‘Yes’ was in the Subject header so I’d obviously not opened that PM. When I opened them, the bell disappeared! Problem solved.

Chewy snap. ?

Is that a kind of snack ?

pollyperkins Sun 20-Sept-20 08:17:31

No! I don’t have a bell! Why not? I feel left out! ☹️

Doodle Sun 20-Sept-20 11:09:54

Pants if you answer woz rite I ope you got a stiffgit.?

Doodle Sun 20-Sept-20 11:11:40

Can be a snack or a game of cards Lucca but knowing Chewy, we’d both prefer the snack......and a ? To go with it. ?

I no longer have any unopened PMs, having found an ancient one and deleted it. I still have my bell.

Pollyperkins I mentioned earlier there are the haves and have nots- you should know which category you are in.

Doodle Sun 20-Sept-20 11:24:05

Miss Charley I’m glad you’ve still got your ding a ling. ?

Charleygirl5 Sun 20-Sept-20 11:27:26

Doodle it is a good job this is the weekend. You will be dealt with when school reopens.

Pantglas2 Sun 20-Sept-20 11:29:20

Miss Charleygirl is right Doodle! You’d be leading me into the brambles of delinquency if we were in Skool ?

Fernbergien Sun 20-Sept-20 11:38:01

I discovered a bell on another site. It seemed that the bell was permanent but when they wanted to give info a number (1) would appear and then go when message read. Of course I may not be right..

Doodle Sun 20-Sept-20 11:41:58

The only time you get caught in the brambles pants is when youz wiv doze boys. ?

Pantglas2 Sun 20-Sept-20 11:48:55

It’s been a while Doodle ?..... wonder if I’d get a Stiffgit for Cycling Proficiency based on my experiences of the Bike Shed......?

I rarely get PMs so was quiet excited to see the bell and assumed it was notification of a new message but my last PM was 6.9.20.
However, I hadn't read it blush so thought perhaps that was why it was there. Having read the message I still have the bell.
BTW I'm on mobile site
