Hi

I may have missed a topic on this or missed the feature all together so please do point me in the right direction if I have. On all the other forums I hang out in (way to many) there is a feature to allow you to subscribe to a Board (forum) to get notified of updates, e.g., new threads. The help files indicate it exists with this software but I do not seem to be able to find it. Found it for posts only.

Does such a feature exist?

Thanks
Andrew

Up top, next to the "Reply" button is an icon of a page with an exclamation point.  Click that.  Also, if you reply to a thread, I believe it also automatically updates you, though I turn that off on most boards I hang out on since I visit frequently enough and don't want extra emails in my inbox.  IIRC, the update notification is sent to your email.

Thanks but that is the button to subscribe to a thread not a forum which is what I was looking for.

Yeah, the subscribe to board option does exist here in SMF (the software used) but it doesn't seem to be available on this theme for some reason.

Here's a link you can use to subscribe to the first "bikepacking" board:

http://www.bikepacking.net/forum/index.php?action=notifyboard;sa=on;board=6.0

You should be able to figure out the board=X.0 for the ones you want.

Sorry it isn't a little easier!
