Push Notifications - I have been clicking "Ask me never again" over and over

[vavavroom]

Sadly, the previous Push Notification thread was locked. Why do I get asked if I want to never be asked again, if I get asked again and again and again anyway?

The site stores the information about whether or not to show you the push notation in a cookie stored in your browser. You gotta allow the cookie and make sure it persists to stop getting the notice. Kind of a terrible way to do it, but that's the way XenForo does it.

Edit: something tells me that maybe you already knew this but are being a wise guy? For comedic purposes? T'aint funny McGee.

It's locked, but still readable:

Thread 'PUSHY push notifications'

May 22, 2024

Every few weeks I get a message at the bottom of the screen saying the site wants to send push notifications. I click the X to get rid of it. It offers options, one being NEVER ASK AGAIN. I click NEVER ASK AGAIN and yet in a few weeks here it comes asking again. I've said NEVER ASK AGAIN over a half dozen times at least. When will it stop? How do I make my choice record and be permanent? What makes it go away?

Deleting cookies when you close your browser does this. All my browsing history is deleted, even cookies, when I close my browser. Just ignore the notification and move on.

I don't delete cookies or clear cache or anything else and still get asked every couple of months. So at least for me that doesn't work.

You already got an answer in your thread.

I don’t get asked. But my iPad isn’t running any software that deletes cookies.

If you are getting asked, either you, or a software program on your device, is deleting the cookie that recorded your previous response. The cookie is good for 10 years.

The OP question has been answered, again. Lock time.
