Bug

Body

I have a notification i can't get rid of, even after multiple reloads etc...
The notification in question is not even shown, but it is listed in the listings as can be seen in the screenshot.
How can i get rid of this one?

Similar to #32380,#32712

There are some suggestions here that should help you: #6874

Like this:

Goto Done.
Select all
Move to inbox
Goto Inbox
Select all
Mark as read
Mark as Done

I had already tried all ways using the GUI, but none worked...
And i'm not willing to fiddle using the API via command-line...

The suggested method is useful, my problem is solved.

This worked for me too. I had to select more than the current screen showed but after I selected enough of my history and performed the steps, it worked.

First time it didn't seem to work. Tried once more buy this time moving a lot more of done notifications to the inbox and it worked!

This works. Be aware that if you have multi-pages, after selecting the first page it will show a link to select the rest.

Thanks, but thats all i could do using the presented UI while creting this topic...
We're not able to manually select categories...

[queenofcorgis]

Hi there - glad to see your notification is no longer stuck, but would you mind elaborating on what you mean by you're not manually able to select categories? We want to make sure you have the best experience in Discussions.

[TriMoon]

Well TBH, i forgot the exact steps i took to post this issue because it was my first time on this board.
But if i would have been able to select categories im sure i would have done so, because im used to use categories all over the web 😉
Anyhow the bug has dissolved itself as i mentioned in my marked post 🖖

[queenofcorgis]

Thanks for the quick response - if you encounter anything like that with the categories again - please give me a ping!

[TriMoon]

Somehow they seem to have fixed my issue Behind the scenes because it's gone without me doing anything except posting this thread 🤣

[ryanmkurtz]

I'm having the same problem I think.

It seems to be coming from this particular repository but I tried all kind of filters and nothing shows up:

It's getting pretty annoying, anyway I can get rid of it?

[fernandoxu]

same! even if I set stop ignoring

[fvlasie]

I am experiencing the same issue. I tired all the steps mentioned here but I cannot resolve it. I have 3 repos with notifications that do not show when I click on them so i cannot mark them as done.

I also have a "stuck notification". Still someone watching here who can fix this for me? I tried everything...

[Nuc1eoN]

Same here. No notifications left but still getting the blue dot.

[M-Reimer]

Yeah but noone seems to care. Still have the problem.

This has resolved it for me.

You have to create a GitHub token, select "Access notifications" and create it.

Copy the token and in your console run export TOKEN=<your-token>.

Then copy and paste this into your console and run it:

curl -X PUT \
   -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
   -H "Authorization: token $TOKEN" \
    https://api.github.com/notifications \
   -d @<(cat <<EOF
   {
     "last_read_at": "$(date -u +'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')"
   }
EOF
)
