Is there a way to follow a section of this forum by emails or RSS feed?

Hi, I would like to know if it’s possible to follow one or several of the forums by receiving emails notifications when somebody has posted a new subject or add the different sections on a RSS feeder?

Thanks for your help!

There used to be, there was a box just above the start of the thread. Try “Subscribe to This Thread” at just above the thread. If that’s not it, hope someone will give us more information. I used to use it on my threads so that I knew when someone respondeded to my questions. Helped, especially if it was a pressing need.

Good luck,

Richard

Yes I noticed that last summer there was on option letting us receive RSS links on our RSS feeder but they changed the forum and I think they removed the option.

No, the option is still there. When you post your item at the bottom of the screen is a box to mark to indicate if you want e-mail for any additional postings for that subject

OK. We’re making progress, I think. The “Subscribe to Thread” (top of the thread, three boxes) gets you email notices, but the box disappears. When you receive a notice, it says if you want to unsubscribe click on the URL, but that only brings you back to the thread. There is no “Unsubscribe to Thread.” Any thoughts how to unsubscribe?

Thank you,

Richard

Went through this recently. The way to unsubscribe is to click on the link in the email you receive. As fas as I know, there is no way to do it from the site.

In fact, what I would like to know is if it’s possible to receive by email a notification every time a member start a subject in one of the section of the forum.

OK, I clicked the link in my email where it said “only this thread” delete notification. It brought me to the thread that looks exactly like the one I click if I am on the forums page to start with. The only thing I find about notifications is “Email Notifications” in the right column. If I click on that I get “Server Error in ‘/’ Application.” Is there another place to click to delete this thread only?

Thank you,

Hellwarrior,

I have never heard of notifications by subject, only if you have read and clicked on that to get notification for that particular thread.

Good luck,

Richard

I know that last summer this function was working but not since they changed the forum.
