Subscribing to an entire board doesn't work
« on: August 15, 2011, 01:10:44 PM »
I tried subscribing to the Animafia board but haven't received any e-mail notifications even though a lot of people have posted since I subscribed. I know it's not an issue with my e-mail account, since I'm subscribed to a few role-playing threads and properly receive notifications when people post. I also know it's not an issue where I accidentally deleted my notification, since it's still showing up in my profile.

Any suggestions on fixing this?

We're not able to subscribe to boards at this time.

Oh, ok. Since the option was there I thought it worked.

Please feel free to lock this. Thanks for the answer! :)

To clarify:

When you subscribed to a board in the past, you would have been notified when someone creates a new thread, and when replies are posted in any thread.

Now, you are only notified when new threads are created.

The ability to be notified when new replies are made was lost with 2.0, but hopefully we'll regain that feature in the near future.

Oh, so that's what happened. No new threads were created after I subscribed, just new posts in threads.

Thanks for explaining!

You subscribed to the board. You can't subscribe to a thread that hasn't yet been created. :)
