Hello, I have been updated some featured/pinned topics and they seem to be sending out updates every time that I update them. Is there a way to disable this? “Watch first Post” shouldn’t trigger if the post is just slightly edited as far as I can tell? Thanks!

[이미지] codinghorror: What do you mean by “I have been updated”? What exactly did you do, step by step? Describe it in detail? Your question is unanswerable until you provide this information. Sorry fort he lack of clarity. For some reason, editing a post that I created would notify other user…

[이미지] tshenry: I am assuming the post had already mentioned the group prior to being edited? Yes, the group mention was already in the post before being edited. Also, the user making the edit was a different user than the one who owned the topic. I will try to repro on my dev setup today and…
