Lost your thread? Subscribe to them....

[ValencianNails]

Following on from Angie's thread re not knowing if Geeks have had any success with the advice they've received on particular problems I thought it might be an idea to explain how to keep an eye on threads without having to search for them, thus being able to give feedback on the aforementioned problems.

Sometimes we manage to lose threads that we've been following and can't be bothered to trudge through pages and pages to find them from a few days previous.

Using the thread subscription is an easy way of keeping track of which threads you've participated in, whether they have had any new replies, or just to go back and have another read of them.

How to subscribe to a thread?
When you create a thread or reply to an existing thread you have the option of subscribing to it, to do this scroll down to where it says Thread Subscription and change it from Do Not Subscribe to No Email Notification, then when you wish to view the threads you've replied to click on Quick Links and scroll down to Subscribed Threads.
When a thread has 'died' and no further replies are being received you can delete the individual subscription by ticking the box to the right on the Subscribed Threads page and then scroll down to click the delete key.

You can also subscribe to threads that you want to follow but haven't yet participated in.
Once you've opened up the thread you wish to subscribe to click on Thread Tools, then click on Subscribe To This Thread, when the new page opens click on Add Subscription and you'll be taken back to the thread you were viewing.
