In the last few days, the orange dot that signals an order appears to me, but as soon as I click to see what it is, it disappears. No orders, no messages. Is this a bug?
Is it possible that there was an order which Etsy immediately canceled due to a problem with it?
What I am finding is that even after I reply to a message, the orange dot keeps coming back. Sometimes I have to go back into messages and click on that message and read it again or even pretend to answer it again. This will go for for 3 or 4 times until I finally get it to go away. It's annoying but you have to check each time because it could actually be a new message from someone else!
