When I click on my Message Inbox I am told there are 218 messages in my Inbox ... but they are not displayed. I have used this feature for years, it used to display my messages but seemed to stop doing so a while ago. It's possible I've mucked up my configuration somehow. Advice on how to troubleshoot welcome.

    Check your inbox display settings. You should have "To eyepopslikeamosquito" checked, and "Inbox (218)" checked.

    What do you see? Does it actually show a messages list, with no messages in it? If not, maybe you have CSS or something interfering with the display of messages.

    Update

    I don't know what was wrong, but I seem to have fixed it.
    One thing I did was switch your view to newest first. :-)

    Please review your Message Settings. (e.g. You're currently not getting notified of replies to your posts.)

    I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.

      Thanks! I can confirm it is now fixed. I also checked the box to be notified of replies to my posts.
