I've wondered for a while if I'm missing an option to automatically subscribe to a thread whenever you post in it, its quite normal in other forums. Is there one I'm missing?

[maggies_minder]

yes there is one,subscribe to the topic and you usually get emails when people post in said topic.

I'm afraid you can't set that, you have to track each topic you want to keep uptodate with seperately.

I've moved this to forum questions, as more likely to get an answer from the mods/admins correcting me.

Ooops, turns out I lied...

Go to 'My Controls' at the top right of the screen.
Then on the Menu on the left go to 'Email Options'.

Now the last option says;

Enable 'Email Notification' by default?
If ticked, choose default type: No Email NotificationImmediate Email NotificationDelayed Emailed NotificationDaily Email DigestWeekly Email Digest
Enabling this option will automatically subscribe you to any topic you start or reply to

This what you want?

Thanks! That's exactly what I meant. Now whenever I reply to a post I am automatically subscribed to the thread, just makes it a little easier.

And thanks for moving it too.
