Notices and notifications
The bell, browser notifications, email and Telegram: what notifies you, when and how to turn it off.
Roliando tells you what is happening at your tables in four ways: the header bell, browser notifications (push), email and Telegram. You decide which.
The bell
The header bell (Alerts) counts what is new. Open it and you will see Alerts: press a notice to go to where it happened, Mark as read to leave it or Mark all as read. If there is nothing, it says «Nothing new for now.»
Browser notifications
Without them you do not find out what is going on until you open the page. When the app offers them you will see Alerts on this device with three reasons:
| Notice | When it arrives |
|---|---|
| Messages and replies | «When someone writes to you or answers you.» |
| Your turn in combat | «Your turn, without watching the tab.» |
| The session is about to start | «The reminder, at your time and in your time zone.» |
Choose Turn on alerts, Not now or Don't ask again. You change it later in Notifications in this browser.
What notifies you and how
In Notifications you choose, notice by notice, whether you want it:
| Setting | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Notifications in this browser | Browser notifications on this device |
| Direct messages | Direct messages |
| Forum replies | Forum replies |
| Campaigns and invitations | Campaigns and invitations |
| Play-by-post | Play-by-post |
| Newly posted games | New posted games |
| Server news | Server news |
| Achievements | Achievements |
| Email notices | Email, in general |
| The GM calls you to the session or the waiting room | The GM calls you to the session |
| You are invited to a campaign | You are invited to a campaign |
| You are mentioned in a campaign chat | You are mentioned in the chat |
| Telegram notices | Telegram notices (see Telegram notices) |
| Muted | What you have muted |
Session reminders arrive at the time of your time zone (Time zone).
When there is no network
If the connection is lost it shows You're offline: «What you see may be incomplete. It retries on its own once you're back online.» With Retry you try by hand.
New version
When there is a new version an icon appears next to the bell (A new version is ready. See what's new). Pressing it takes you to What's new.
Common problems
“I do not get the browser notifications.” Check that you allowed them in the browser and that Notifications in this browser is on; if you turned them off you will see «This device does not receive alerts.».
