How to get notified when there is a reply to a thread

Hi guys!

 

Can anyone tell me how to get notified by emal when I want to follow something on a thread I am interested in? It sounds like a dumb question and it probably is but I'd still like to set that uo.

 

Thanks!

Hi Tuna, i get notifications all the time but i dont know how it happened. I think it just started when the site was revamped?

When you reply on a topic (or start a topic) it sets you to 'watching' the topic (in RH menu) by default & you get emails for every subsequent post on that topic. You can siop watching any topic at any time.

Hi Tuna,

 

There is an automatic feature, very useful, that allows you to be notified wether someone post a new thread in a specified sub-forum, a reply or any new thread in any forum.

 

You can choose to be notified inside a particular forum, like the Walkman Chat area by clicking here (you may have to check that you have your email adress properly indicated in your profile):

 

watch 1b

 

then you have to choose when you will be notified:

 

watch 2b

 

Or you can choose to be notified whenever any post in any forum is created, and you will be instantly notified. This make more fresh the discussions:

 

watch 3b

 

hope this helps. I'm using it for a while and it's very helpful,

 

Regards,
