Message notification not showing up on dashboard.
I was waiting for a response from a buyer concerning their order. I happened to notice an orange dot next to the envelope icon on their order. This was the only indication that I had a message, it did not show up on my dashboard on the Messages tab. For any admin. that might see this post, is this a known glitch?

Re: Message notification not showing up on dashboard.
Same thing happened to me, I missed a message, dinged my star seller, I’m so annoyed! I was even checking regularly. I never get email notifications. No pop up, no nothing.

Wow, that's awful!!! I'd say to contact Etsy but from what I've read in the forums they won't alter SS stats, even if the error is theirs. Very sad.

Re: Message notification not showing up on dashboard.
I had the same thing happen today. Buyer placed an order yesterday and I had a question on shipping. I messaged her yesterday. When I logged in early this morning, I went to my dashboard. There wasn't any messages showing. I had to send anew message to another customer and clicked on messages. No new message there either. I then went to my orders and there was an orange dot next to the envelope of the order with the shipping question. Her message was sent a few hours before I logged in. Once I responded to her message both her reply and my response showed in messages. I contacted CS but they said that had not heard of any problems & thought it was just a glitch. Sellers be sure to look at your orders and don't rely solely on your dashboard.
