Not getting Messages on iPad

I was getting Messages on my iPad, but am not anymore . . . I think I have followed all previous steps given from support questions from a few years ago, but still no luck. Can someone please help?

iPad Pro, Version 17.7.5

Thank you,

Kathy

Assuming that you have an iPhone - and both iPad and iPhone are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID - you must explicitly enable Text Message Forwarding for your iPad on your iPhone...


On your iPhone:

Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your iPad from the list of devices.


Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is enabled on both your iPhone and iPad:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to ON
