Do not subscribe in Quick reply


Hey guys,

just wondering if there is a way to add a "do not subscribe" button in the quick reply. I know you can unsubscribe by going to the "advanced" button. but it would be easier to have a DNS button in the quick reply. Just a thought

PS. Doing a bang up job on the forums, Loving it keep up the great work

Slightly longer method than yours, but you could click the Thread Tools drop down at the top of every thread and then click "Subscribe" or "Unsubscribe".

I don't know if I like the idea behind the "do not subscribe" button though- you mean like, you could write something, say a snarky comment, and then never be bothered by that thread again?

I reckon if you're going to be unhelpful, you need to have a bit of effort in it.

But on the other hand, do you want to be subscribed to the really busy megathreads?

You can set the default in your UserCP. The Quick Reply is meant to be just that, so features are intentionally minimal. If you use the Go Advanced button, you can override your default subscription settings on a per thread basis.

That's not a problem. As the e-mails suggest, I only receive one reply message until I visit that particular thread again.

Cheers
Bill
