How Does "call Number" Work?

[+cache_test_dummies]

I'm an officer in a group with "Can Review Waymarks" permission and a status of Active, but I'm not getting notified when new waymarks are being submitted to that category.

 

Is that because my "call number" for the group is 2, and the leader (with a call number of 1) is reviewing and approving the waymarks before they are propagated down the call list?

 

If so, how long does a pending waymark sit in the approval queue for the person with call number 1 before the request for approval propagates down to the person with call number 2?

Your call number indicates the order in which you joined the group. It shouldn't affect your new waymark notifications. Is your spam filter catching them?

 

Anyone else not receiving emails?

Is your spam filter catching them?

I'm getting email notifications for another category in which my call number is 1, so it's not a spam filter issue.

I have call numbers 3 and 4 in two groups and got email notifications today a couple of minutes after two new waymarks were posted so something else must be going on in your case.

I just received a waymark notification for another group in which I'm call number 3, so the issue appears to be related to a particular group.

 

For that group, I noticed that the notifications I didn't get all came from waymarks posted by the leader of the group. Could that be the problem? If you post a submit a waymark to a category for which you are the leader, does an email go out?

I figured it out.

 

False alarm - the category in question had not yet been adopted by the group. This explains why I wasn't receiving waymark submittal emails. The group has now successfully adopted the category, so all should be well at this point.
