or receiving email updates for each one.

 

 

 

How do I subscribe to a thread or forum?

To subscribe to a forum, click the 'Forum Tools' link above the list of threads then select 'Subscribe to Forum'. You will then have the option to choose the subscription mode for this forum. If the forum that you are subscribing to has any child forums (forums within a forum) then your subscription will be extended to these automatically.

 

 

 

 

To subscribe to a thread, click the 'Thread Tools' link at the top of the list of posts then click 'Subscribe to Thread'. You can then choose the subscription mode that you wish to use for that thread.

, scroll down to the second category - Messaging & Notification, check the Default Thread Subscription Mode and select the option that is the most convenient for you.

There are a number of different forum subscription modes available.

 

• Through my control panel only - lists the subscription in your User CP only without receiving any notification in your email. You do not receive any notifications about new posts or threads in the forum. To check your subscriptions go to Settings (in the top right corner of the forum).
  
• Daily Email Notification - sends one email a day with the new and updated threads in the forum and any sub-forums. If there are no new or updated threads in the forum or its sub-forums then you will not receive an email.
  
• Weekly Email Notification - sends one email per week in the same way as the Daily Email Notification.
  

Thread Subscriptions have the same options as forum subscriptions with the following additional option:

 

• Instant Email Notification - sends an email as soon as a new post is added to the thread. This is not sent for every reply and will only be sent once until you revisit the forums.
  

 

 

How do I manage Subscriptions and Folders?

 

To see your Subscribed threads click on Settings (in the top right corner of the forum, near the Log Out button). You will see the subscribed threads with new post along with a button 'View All Subscribed Threads'.

 

Thread subscriptions can be sorted into folders for easy management. You can create as many folders as you wish by going to '

' in the 'Subscribed Threads' section of your User CP. To add a new folder, enter the folder name into one of the blank boxes and save the page. To delete a folder, delete the folder name. Editing a folder is done by simply editing the folder name in the list.

 

 

 

How do I unsubscribe from a thread?

 

Click on Settings (in the top right corner of the forum), then a page with settings will show up. In the left side there is a column with options. Click on Subscriptions.

 

Here you can select which subscriptions you wish to manage and delete them, move them to another folder, or change their subscription type.

 

In order to manage a thread, select the thread you want to manage, click on Selected Threads in the bottom right part of the list and Delete subscriptions or change the mode you want to be announced of updates (via email or via Control Panel only).
