I have members who want to get notified via email when a post has been added to a specific category. Like most things related to discourse, I can’t figure it out. I see the bell, but that doesn’t seem to send anything to the inbox.

Have them change Category to watching [Screenshot_20231229-201643] The SS above shows it from topic controls. They can add a category to watched in Preferences. [Screenshot_20231229-202516] Alternatively There is a Customization > Theme component that can make this easier as well. …

Lass sie die Kategorie in „Ansehen“ ändern

Der obige Screenshot zeigt es aus den Themensteuerelementen. Sie können in den Einstellungen eine Kategorie zu den angesehenen Themen hinzufügen.

Alternativ gibt es eine Customization > Theme component, die dies ebenfalls erleichtern kann.

Es gibt auch ein Customization > Plugin, mit dem Sie Mitglieder verfolgen können.
