Greetings all,
We've made updates recently to enhance the phpbb forum software so that
when someone posts an update to either a forum or a topic you subscribe to on the forums the forums will email you the text of the updates. Here's how it works:
This is a different theme called 'Redlight', but it's similar with all themes.
At the bottom right on this theme, highlighted you'll see the word 'subscribe' - Click and you will get updates from that particular forum
The subscribe option is available on all the PHPBB Styles that Gunleaders has available. It it isn't obvious ( it's not obvious in the picture below, I had to do this too ) from your browser menu bar, select EDIT then select FIND 'subscribe'. Click on Subscribe and that will enable email notifications of topics posted or replied to in the forum.
To get the most out of the Gunleaders Forums we recommend that you set your default options to "subscribe" you to topics that you reply to, or start by default. PHPBB by default does not subscribe you to topics that you start or reply to. Here is how you update this.
Go to the User Control Panel or UCP.
Select "board preferences" then select "edit posting defaults".
Select "Yes" for "Notify me upon replies by default"
Then "submit / save" your changes.
If you don't do this, you can still subscribe to topics within the topics themselves even if you don't reply. Once again, you have to really look for the "subscribe". In this theme, it's below the 'new topic' button.
