you should upgrade to the version on github for many bug fixes.

I have installed many of the mods and have done a lot of customization.
Is there any way to update so I can keep the customization safe.

You shouldn't have done that, if you kept a track of your changes you can upgrade and re-apply them.

My site is live with thousands of users and topis. To update and reapply the customization is not easy .
Can you suggesting me something to look in to in order to fix the notification issue.

Debug the code, find the issue creating the conflict or problem and fix it.

Why would you have used the beta version on a live site with thousands of users?

We have big warnings all over the place that tell you not to use the beta1 version on a live site?

The version thatbyou are running has hundreds of known issues...  And we do not support the beta with patches.   When beta 2 comes out, the only way to upgrade will be to replace all files.

So, basically, you have put yourself in a no win situation...

Yes, this is the only things I can do now.

[Kindred]

the thing is....   there are literally hundreds of fixes to the code from the version that you are currently using -- so, even fixing this ONE issue will still leave you with BUCKETS of things which are broken

Your best bet would actually be to forget about your mods and do the real upgrade.

and next time, document your personal customizations ...   oh yeah... and don't use a beta version on a live site.

What op said is true and it is still on 2.1 beta 2. I installed the latest version today in a directory just to test it. The only notification that is working is likes notification, other notification which includes QUOTE, MENTIONED, etc are not working. Feel free to check it out in the live server  http://celebrityng.com/smf

Notifications and alerts are not working on a live server even with the latest from Git.

Do you have post approval enabled? And were the posts requiring approval?
