Title: How to remove unwanted Threads from my List of New Replies ?
Post by: Scrambler82 on September 03, 2021, 12:42:09 PM
Hello,

I have on my List of "Show New Replies to My Posts", three Threads I do not want to see there anymore.

I have looked on these threads to see if there was a Button to stop the notifications or to unfollow, or to just stop seeing them, but I found nothing.

Please let me know how to stop unwanted thread from showing up in my Reply Box ?

Thanks
Grev B.
p.s.  I sent this same question/post a couple of days ago and it is now missing.

You cannot unsubscribe from a thread once you posted in it.

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to insure that they don't show up, unless the threads die off.  You will probably eventually  learn to just ignore them and scan on down the list whenever you check for new replies to your posts. That becomes easier with time.

You can always click on MARK ALL MESSAGES AS READ when you pull up "Show new replies to your posts".
Read the ones you want & click MARK ALL MESSAGES AS READ on the ones you don't.

^^^^  What he said!  ^^^^  That's exactly what I do.  Read what I want and then click MARK ALL AS READ to clear the list till next time!  Unfortunately, they will return if someone adds a post, but eventually they fall off when there are no more responses...

If you get email notification of a response to a thread you can click on the unsubscribe link in that email.

Interestingly the AirgunGuild uses the same SMF forum software and the link I see in emails to unsubscribe to a thread has a different url pattern.

Code: [Select]

The u=2 argument is passed as is a token.

Dang, Matt, you are COLD!

My new strategy is to see how many posts I can get in.  Makes me feel important when I see all these folks replying to the same posts as I do.   :D ;) 8)
::) ::) IMOGs rule ::) ::)

I understand and should have used that option before this.
I have seen it and I delete the Notification before really looking.

Steveoh Thanks a lot and all of the postings, appreciate your patience.
