Title: Subscribe to Threads
Post by: paxham on December 18, 2012, 04:09:37 PM

Let me start out by saying I like this forum and the way it is laid out.  It is clean and easy to navigate. 

Now the gripe (or request).  I'd really like to be able to subscribe to threads on created or posted on.  As it is, somebody may have answered a question I had, but I've either forgotten or haven't checked the thread recently.  From experience I know how frustrating this is when you are trying to conduct a conversation online. 

So that's it, subscriptions.

In the case this already exists, please tell me how to do it.  It hasn't jumped up and bit me.

Thanks.  I'll "try" to check back soon for an answer.

I mainly use Tapatalk. Subscribing to threads is easy as long pressing on the thread, select subscribe!

Don't get notifications in Tapatalk for this forum though, even when subscribed.

In SMF, the software of this forum 'subscriptions' are called 'notifications' I believe.   Have you checked out the notification settings you have access to under the 'Profile' menu up top and then 'Account Settings', then 'Modify Profile' and then choose 'notifications'.    You then have several 'notification' options to choose from depending on how much info you want from the thread.

Also, on any thread you're in press the 'notify' button on the top.

Also, maybe this isn't what you want but, first thing in the morning I always check "Show new replies to your posts" first.  That brings up every thread that I've participated in recently.  A handy feature!

Thanks BFM,  I never saw that notify button on top of the thread.  Exactly what I was looking for.
