Hi @swijaya. Your post made me think about something I’ve contemplated since I first built the site. I would greatly appreciate your honest thoughts on an idea I have — whether or not you would find a feature I’m proposing useful.
Email alerts were sent out for this deal to everyone who subscribes to the Deals Forum — they received those emails shortly after the deal was posted. However, I realize that LM has dozens of deals each day and not everyone wants dozens of deal emails from LinkedMusicians forum each day (being candid, I personally wouldn’t if I weren’t running the site). However, that is the way the site’s forum email alert script works and there’s no way to change it besides having a developer custom write a script / plugin. One of our members, @lamia6, is a talented developer who did exactly that. She built a custom script/plugin so that we’re soon going to rolling out, so that everyone who wants it can receive a daily deal summary from LinkedMusicians. That should roll out within the next 30 days.
However, I’ve long contemplated that it would be IDEAL (I’m not saying practical!) if our members could sign up for alerts on very time-sensitive deals like this one or glitch sales. If we had that option, would you subscribe to it?
And yes, I realize that I’m off topic! I will do another thread about this in the future, but I just thought this situation is exactly why I think my proposed email alert would be super useful. But please, if you disagree, be really candid! I want your honest thoughts.
Thanks!

Hi @peter, first of all, I didn’t know that there’s an e-mail alert for Deals section. However, you’re correct that I probably don’t want to be alerted of every single deals. That being said, I might be having more interest in time-sensitive deals and glitches, and yes, I think I’ll try subscribing to it, to have a feel on how useful it is (also, as in: how many alerts I’m going to get in a given time period).
Specifically for the on-topic freebie, yes, I would like it very much if I could get an alert such as “limited (probably mere minutes/hours) free UAD effects on jrrshop.”

This is pretty much my feeling as well. I don’t think I would want them all, but alerts for time-senstive things sounds quite helpful.
Well, just know that the idea of time-limited email alerts is just an idea I have. It would not be easy to execute. But the daily email digest is coming soon. As far as subscribing to email alerts as they are today, you just need to go to the top of any thread you want to subscribe to and press subscribe or you can go to the top level of the deals forums to subscribe to the entire forum. It’s a pretty standard way email alerts work for forums. I think that works for a forum that doesn’t have a lot of posts, but for our deals forum, I think it can be overwhelming. That’s why I think the daily email digest is perfect.
When the daily digest email option is available, I’ll do a little graphic for it on the column on the right (which I use to alert everyone about important content like the Best Holiday Deals and Freebies Roundup Graphic and stuff like our members’ music). I’ll also do a post about it.
