Hi, all.
I have tried several times to set up some Saved Searches, but either I am expecting something above what the facility is designed to provide, or it's broke.
I run a search which returns results, and I Save it with a 72hr alert period. The search appears in my Saved Searches list, but the only option I have is Delete. I can't run a saved search from the list, and cannot modify a Saved Search. The table is filled with N/A's which never change, even months after the search was saved.
I never get any alerts e-mailed to me.
Has anyone got the facility to do more than sit there quietly?
Regards,
Paul.
They were working, but have now stopped working.
The back room guys are looking at it.
A hard one to try and explain, so here goes..
Depending on your search criteria, the saved search searches the member database at the frequency you've set (daily / 72hrs etc) and will send you an email to your external email address if any 'new' members meet the criteria you've set. If there are no new members meeting the criteria then no email.
eg. If you saved the 'default' search engine criteria and set the notification at 24hours then you should get an email with all 'new' members that joined in the last 24 hours...
Thanks Gufuncouple, you've confirmed how I thought it was supposed to work. And thanks for confirming it's broken.
Paul.
