Thread Subscription?

[SMG]

Any way to make it so that I don't have to manually select subscribe?

I liked how on the old boards, I'd automatically get notifications, and then hit the stop sending link if I wasn't interested anymore.

You can set it in your User CP to automatically subscribe to threads and to have the instant email notification.

Or to be more specific, go to User CP, then Edit Options. From there, go to the Messaging & Notification section, where you will be able to make e-mail notifications standard. Like the old forums.

Remember, this is a new version of the same forum software, so most of the ways the old forum worked can be enabled somewhere in the settings.

Wow, there's a ton of options there, isn't there?

This new forum software is impressing me more every day

Thanks for that tip!

For the record, I chose to turn the e-mail notification system off by default because it's pretty stressful on the mail server. I certainly don't mind people using it (or else I would have turned it off all together!), but I just know the old forums send out tons and tons of mail to people who don't really want or need it. If you want it, then by all means use it, but this way, I can relieve the strain on the mail server a bit by only sending messages to those who really want them.
