I answered a question on Super User and while on other sites I did not get a 'Reputation Notification' to explain that I was given 2 upvotes for my answer - yet if I manually check my Profile here at meta.SE my total Reputation is in agreement with the amount there.

I'm not knowledgeable about the intercommunication between the servers and sites but I would explain it this way: Super User either failed to send or other sites failed to receive the message the I had a reputation update on Super User.

I should have received either two green star trophies (🏆) of 10 reputation each or one of 20; depending on when I returned to one of the Stack Exchange / Stack Overflow / Super User / etc. sites.

Here's a screenshot showing no reputation change notification for Super User:

Meta.SE Reputation Pulldown

Here's a screenshot of my Profile over at Super User showing that I was silently credited:

My Super User Profile

I'm bringing this up on Meta.SE in case the communication is broken between more sites than just Super User and everywhere else.

    It's also broken on Meta.SE: i.sstatic.net/Gpntu.jpg (that's a question from today with 3 upvotes)

    I'm bringing this up on Meta.SE in case the communication is broken between more sites than just SuperUser and everywhere else. Confirmed for SO.

    Not only Super User and meta, it is network wide. I asked it in chat first for confirmation. Earned rep is not shown but badges are shown. chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/7151328#7151328

  • Thanks. Other Rep. Notifications seem to come through, only found one site but I thought there could be many that I'm not registered at.

  • The achievements inbox in the app doesn't work either.

  • This issue seems to exist on SFF as well, for myself and one other user.

    Possibly related (or should I ask a new question?): A user's site-wide activity page (e.g. stackexchange.com/users/2397966/tripehound?tab=activity) doesn't seem to be being updated (mine shows my most recent activity as 20 hours ago, but I've done stuff since then).

    @TripeHound I can confirm the wrong behavior of the “global” activity page.

  • This issue is site wide on SE. The achievement icon isn't showing any activity, if you drill down to your reputation section of your profile it's getting updated though.

  • In case they are different issues, I've created a separate question Site-wide activity page not being updated for the problem I saw.

  • This problem is also appear at Math.SE, I posted same question on Math.meta.SE yesterday: math.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/28827/…

  • Seems it might just have sprung back into life... I've just got notification of upvotes on the possibly-related problem with the site-wide activity page (and that seems fixed as well).

This was an issue with the aggregator. Now fixed, and data that was queued (none should be lost) will be coming in over the next ~20 minutes (estimate, may be longer). Original answer here.

  • Presumably that also explains Site-wide activity page not being updated which also sprung back into life at the same time. Should I close that as a duplicate of this question?

    Again, the achievements pop-up does not show the recent changes (seen on Stack Overflow and on Math Stack Exchange).

  • Agreed, MartinR. My reputation gains here aren't showing up.

  • Fixed, again. Thanks. BTW: There was an approximately 5 hour delay between earning and notification.
