    Hello Marge,

    I was able to locate all of the 'missing' referrals in your account and I can totally understand your confusion.

    On the dashboard screen--where all of your opportunities are listed--the column labeled 'Referrals/Views' indicates that you have received 19 referrals from an opportunity:



    However, it appears that you created this opportunity a few years ago--and you have been changing the title to correspond with the month/year. Despite these changes the system tracks all referrals from the original date the opportunity was published.

    In short, the 'missing' referrals are actually a couple years old.

    You can view the entire referral history for your account by clicking on the 'Volunteer Referrals & Reports' tab on the left hand side of you dashboard screen:



    Using the pull down menus at the top of the screen you can filter results via opportunity and sort via chronological order.

    I hope this helps!

    sad I’m distressed.
    Sorry but it doesn't solve the receiving them by email notification -- it only solves finding the referrals if I go on line to volunteermatch.com.

      Hello Pat,

      In your account, everything appears to be set up correctly. You are listed as the contact on a number of opportunities.

      Have you ever received a referral email from VolutneerMatch? Have you not received anything recently?

      You can double check--see if you missed referrals--by following the directions above to view the referral history for all of your opportunities.

      I'll look for your reply.
