I have by default set to 'Do not subscribe to Thread'. If I make a forum post, I normally set it to 'Subscribe by instant email'. However, this seems not to be working, as I am still not subscribed to that thread. Is this a known bug?
Maybe I was not clear what I meant - In my global settings, I have set Notification type - Do not subscribe. Now, when I make a forum post, I change the Notification type to Instant email notification for that post. However, even when I do this, it is still set to Do not subscribe. As such, if I have made many posts that day, I tend to forget to see if there are any replies for a particular post.
I don't know how to make myself clear. By default, whenever I make a new forum post my post's Notification Type is set to Do not Subscribe. I always change that to Instant email notification. In spite of doing this, the Notification type remains as Do not subscribe and hence I get no emails. Now if I edit my forum posting by going to Advanced options; I change it to Instant email notification - it then works.
a vB bug? I tried this and this was an issue with me as well. Though, when I was on instant email in my profile, and I check"Do not subscribe", it worked out.
