Is there a way to subscribe to all posts/categories? I’ve noticed that if I subscribe to a parent category I only get notifications for posts in the parent category and not any of the sub categories. Is there a way to set it to that I would get notifications from all sub categories? Similarly is there a setting for the user to get notifications for all new categories automatically?

Well that’s my choice right? I want all notifications - is there a way to get it? As the moderator (atleast in the beginning) I want to see all posts across the forum, is there some setting I can enable to see all posts?

In your profile/options/categories add all the categories and sub-categories in the Watching box

I did that for the parent categories hence my question. It doesn’t subscribe me to the sub categories and it’s too many to put in individually. Looks like there no setting so I would like to request a setting to allow users to subscribe to ‘all’ which them subscription to all categories (within permission rights) and possibly and option to subscribe to all sub categories. So I can pick a category and then I want to see all activity within the category and sub categories. I know this feature would be loved my many users who wants to track activity within a section of the forum. For that matter I know if atleast 4 users on the SmartThings forum that would love the all option as they track EVERY post. @codinghorror would it possible for either of the two options above?

I know this is not what you asked, but why do you have so many sub-categories? It’s recommended to start with only a limited number of categories in order not to confuse people. I mean, if you have too many sub-categories to be able to enter them manually into your tracked category preferences, then you really have heaps, right?

[图片] RBoy: I want to see all posts across the forum, is there some setting I can enable to see all posts You can look at https://meta.discourse.org/new and see all the posts you haven’t read. That’s what I do. And it’s tons easier than the notifications interface.

[图片] tophee: why do you have so many sub-categories Migrating a discussion forum and these were required to keep it manageable/organized. Will revisit over time and adjust as required. That aside, as I had mentioned I know many folks who wants to track everything on the forum or ATLEAST want to track a category and all sub categories to it, there should be an easier way to track all sub categories.

[图片] pfaffman: You can look at https://meta.discourse.org/new and see all the posts you haven’t read H’mm good point, would that be all new posts or just new posts to categories I’ve subscribed?

What does this option do? default email mailing list mode Send an email for every new post by default. Is this for every new post or just categories that folks have subscribed to? If it’s categories wouldn’t this happen by default if they’ve subscribed to those categories? It’s not very clear what’s the scope of this option.

[图片] RBoy: It’s not very clear what’s the scope of this option. “Every new post” is literal every. All the posts :allthethings:.

If you get a notification for everything, notifications then mean nothing.
