In the User Control Panel, the section:
Is set to:
However I still get an email every time anyone posts to a thread I’m subscribed to.
I’m getting a little tired of clearing out thousands of emails. What do I need to do to make it stop?
that would be the default.
you are still subscribed to some.
In the User Control Panel
on the left is
list subscriptions
go to that and unsubscribe to what you don’t want.
I want to be subscribed to the thread, I just don’t want the emails.
There’s a “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page.
I saved the changes many moons ago. I’ve checked it several times and each time I log in it shows that I should receive no emails, and yet they keep a commin’
When I get a notification for a post to a subscribed threads, it says this at the end:
I still get more notifications whether I visit the forum in between or not.
Are you receiving notifications from recent threads, or old ones? I used to have notifications turned on but turned them off several years ago. Every once in a while somebody bumps an old thread from when I had notifications on and I get an email. No emails from any threads after I turned them off.
Did you update the subscription type for each subscribed thread, not just the default (which applies to new subscribed threads)?
Wha? I have to do it for each thread?
Oh boy…
OK, that didn’t work either.
I check the box for no notification and when I go back in it’s unchecked.
You didn’t finish the task. Click ALL the boxes for your subscribed threads (like you did). Then at the very bottom of the list where it says “Selected Threads”, change the dropdown from “Move to folder” to “No email notification”. Then click go. Hopefully that will work.
ETA Just noticed you don’t have to click all the boxes, just the very first one, which seems to select all the others.
By Grabthar’s hammer, that seems to work!
Thanks Canadjun!
No problem.
All hail Grabthar!
