I thought I saw something once that you could click so you can watch a thread without having to put a meaningless reply in to subscribe.
Hmmm.

354116 2005-05-11 06:56:00 When viewing the thread, look on the thread toolbar for "Thread Tools".
An option exists to "subscribe to this thread"

Youve a better memory than me.
Cheers.

354118 2005-05-11 07:04:00 Not really.
I have never yet subscribed to any thread.
I just knew it should be in a logical place and had a look to see where.

354119 2005-05-11 07:08:00 If you want to get all fancy, you can create customised folders to put different subscribe threads into. Go into your UserCP here (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz), and make a new folder name. When you next wish to subscribe to a thread for a particular reason, you can save it to that special folder using the drop down selection you will now have. This saves having your selected watched threads added to the general ones where you have replied to a thread and therefore subscribed to it (if that is how you have set your options).

For example, you may wish to have a Subscription folder called "Linux Stuff" where you can add any Linux related thread that you find interesting for future reference. :)

Maybe I am just a tidy freak with my folders ... :rolleyes:

354121 2005-05-11 14:33:00 To All: If you don't already subscribe to threads you post or reply to, you should set the option (pressf1.co.nz) to at least No email notification. With this set you can more quickly scan which threads you have participated in from the New Posts (pressf1.co.nz) page, and also get a run down of from your Subscriptions page (pressf1.co.nz). sal (67)
