Incorrect blog name attached to email notification

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have just received two email notifications. The messages related to content on the blog “redstuffdan”. However, the name of the originating blog was incorrectly set as “Why Evolution Is True”. I do follow the redstuffdan blog, but have only subscribed to comments on WEIT.

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

    Hi Roger,

    I just checked your account and found that you are following the blog Redstuffdan and it is currently set to receive instant post notifications and no comment emails. If you want to change it to receive no post notifications and only comment notifications, please log into WordPress.com and hit Edit where it says Blogs you Follow. Click on Edit next to the blog name and set it to this:

    Let me know if you have any questions with this!

    The point is that the email is identified as originating from a different blog. You can see this in this screenshot.

    You have misunderstood my query. There is something wrong with the notification system, if it tags a new content message with the wrong blog name.

    Hi there,

    I took a look at that screenshot, and I’m not understanding what the issue is?

    The post title is Wordless Wednesday 5/2015 and it’s from redstuffdan.

    Here’s the actual post:

    https://redstuffdan.wordpress.com/2015/02/03/wordless-wednesday-52015/

    Where is the error?

    Grace,

    I have discovered the problem. It is in my Contacts list that has (presumably through inadvertent key presses) associated the address (email visible only to moderators and staff) with the name Why Evolution Is True.

    My apologies.

    Glad it’s all been figured out.

    Cheers!
