startwin Posted January 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2014 As so many of us scan right past the announcements and stickies when we come onto the forum, I just thought I'd mention the new one at the top of the page about Price Drops, in case you missed it. I tried it out, I like this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuthC Posted January 23, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks for letting us know. I'm one who is proficient at the "page down" and "↓" buttons, and never see the announcements or stickies. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenato Posted January 23, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Looks OK but think I will stick with **********!! Ooops seems I can not say that, well lets just say there is another product out there that does a good job on notifying about price changes for just your cruise!!

olson99 Posted January 24, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I like this but would love a feature to choose multiple entries such as outside and balcony at the same time. I guess you can create individual alerts for each cabin type. I would also love to customize it a bit. I am looking for Alaska Cruise tour but can only choose Alaska.

Rare 1of4 Posted January 24, 2014 #12 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Wow thanks so much. I would have never noticed if left up to my own devices. The only time I usually looked at the stikies was to link to the cabin photos.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crazy For Cats Posted January 24, 2014 #13 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I like the idea of this new feature. Will be curious if I find any price drops before I get the email alert. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Rare LauraS Posted January 24, 2014 Administrators #18 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Thank you!! When I was on earlier today -- I did not see this feature. I see that it lasts until February 22. The *announcement* will be live until Feb 22, not the Price Drop feature :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Rare LauraS Posted January 24, 2014 Administrators #19 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Yikes, you don't read my stickies and announcements????!!!!??? Seriously, I'm open to hearing how we can better reach you with time-sensitive materials such as our contests, or new features, or new rules .

Seriously, I'm open to hearing how we can better reach you with time-sensitive materials such as our contests, or new features, or new rules <smile>. Laura I think the way you displayed it in the opening tile on the CC Front Page was effective. The giant words "Price Drop" caught my attention and caused me to click into the window. You are on the right track! :D edit: to add, I always navigate to the forums from the home page, so I am always briefly seeing the first "window" or "tile" in that section that rotates different tiles. I guess if others have bookmarked the forums page directly, they'd miss anything on the home page.

Cruising-along Posted January 24, 2014 #22 Share Posted January 24, 2014 [/b] Exactly! I imagine many of us have it bookmarked - I seldom go through the home page for anything. Can't remember the last time, in fact. Ditto. I must say I'm happy to see fewer stickies now though. The more there are, the less I "see" them. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember the last time, in fact. I like to see what's going on at the home page, and I occasionally take the surveys for fun. :D I know they aren't scientific, but sometimes they are interesting.
