I post serialized fiction on my forum. For each novel, I create a topic that serves as a table of contents, with the OP linking to all chapters. I read in this topic that making the OP a wiki would allow edits to notify users watching the topic. I tried that, when I edit the wiki post for the first time, users watching the topic get notified as expected. But if I make more edits afterward, no further notifications are sent. It seems that only the first edit in a row by a user triggers a notification. If the same user makes several edits in succession, only the first one sends a notification. But once another user edits the post, the original user can trigger a new notification with their next edit. For example: User A creates the wiki post. Users B and C are watching the topic. A edits the post — B and C are notified. A edits again — no notification. A edits a third time — still no notification. Then User B edits the post — A and C are notified. After that, A edits again — this time, B and C are notified. This makes it difficult to keep readers informed when new chapters are added, because all updates come from the same user. Is this the expected behavior? Is there any way to make every edit (even by the same user) trigger a notification for watchers? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! :slightly_smiling_face:

I remember a previous #bug report about this: [תמונה] Sporadic Wiki Post notifications Bug I’ve been trying to get some repro steps, but it did get a little confusing. slightly_smiling_face It seems it doesn’t like consecutives, but I’ll post my notes and let someone else see if they’re useful. +1 Expected behaviour: That an edit notification will be received by the author, and any user Watching the wiki topic, for any significant edit (pencil change). Actual behaviour: A user can consecutively edit a wiki multiple times without triggering a notification to the author or Watchin…

Thanks for the bug report! I did some testing myself and noticed that if there’s a gap of around 20 hours after the last edit, the next edit can trigger the notification again. Still not sure what’s going on, but for now I’ll just try lowering the update frequency to avoid it.
