This was a surprise to us as well. It would be nice to have notification of downtime posted here on this support forum in advance so we can let our members know.
How do you turn the page notification back on? I hit the hide button at some point and so I no longer see them and I don't know how to turn it back on.
We have to move that service to another machine. The downtime will probably be ~4 hours.
I changed the message to "This forum will be down...". This should reduce the confusion.
What I'm talking about is that I don't think I see any of the notifications anymore. As some point, I closed the notifications bar and I don't know how to get it back. I didn't see the notification about downtime, but my business partner did. So how do I "reset" the notification bar?
The notification we used today didn't have a 'close' option. Some notifications have, but they are only for admins (today's notification was for everyone). If you want to bring the admin notification back to your browser, you should delete your browser cookies.
