I don’t recieve new e-mails regarding new followers and likes although they are checked in notification configuration part.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Have you confirmed your settings here?
Settings > Discussion:
E-mail me whenever
__ Anyone posts a comment
__ A comment is held for moderation
__ Someone likes one of my posts
__ Someone reblogs one of my posts
__ Someone follows my blog
click “save changes” when you are done.

Have you also checked your email client spam/junk mail folder and white-listed email from @wordpress.com?

Yes, the settings are confirmed and I’ve also checked the spam folder as well..

Please see what I posted above. Many bloggers forget to whitelist email from @wordpress.com in their email client. Please be sure you check your email client spam/junk mail folder and do the whitelisting.

Hi,
I get notifications for direct WordPress followers but not for e-mail followers (or likes), plus new Facebook followers are not shown if I don’t re-link the facebook page.

Ok, so Linda it appears that your feature is working correctly.

Users that are not logged in as WordPress.com members will not generate an email to you regarding their activity. I notice, Ece Erel, that all your latest followers are non-members. That is why you haven’t been receiving an email.

You may need to clear your cache to make sure that your Publicize is working – you shouldn’t have to disconnect and reconnect. Here is more information about how to do that:

But I used to receive them before, I have recently changed the name of my blog and I stop getting e-mails afterwards.

I also read on wordpress’ website that I should be getting e-mails regarding the likes as well, but I don’t get them either.

Oh that’s really interesting Ece Erel.

I just liked your blog and a post in your blog. Can you let me know if you get notifications for those? I just need to double check that you aren’t receiving these from logged-in users.

Cheers!

I received two mails, I don’t have any problems with logged in users but with non wordpress users.

I don’t receive e-mails for facebook, twitter, pinterest, g+ etc likes/sharings…

Ok, I see.

You won’t receive notification for non-logged in WordPress.com users. You will only see WordPress.com “like” notifications from logged-in users as well – the other services won’t send notifications at all.

I hope that helps clear up some confusion!

Hello, I’m having a similar issue; I’m not getting toolbar notifications of new blog likes, however I am getting emails.

Also, the Gravatar icons (of WP users who liked my post) are not showing on my new blog post, although the count is there.

My settings are the same and enabled to share/show icons.

Any ideas?
