Is there way to subscribe a topic’s replies by email?
Scenario: I’m “watching first post” in a channel. I see something I like. I reply “watch” (or “subscribe” or click a “follow” link etc), and am subscribed to replies to that single topic.
I understand that if I reply to it with a comment or “+1” I’ll be subscribed, but is there a way to subscribe without “liking” it?
Use the notification control on the topic to set your notification level for the topic. It is visible both near the timeline and at the bottom of the topic.
You will only be emailed about notifications if the website has not seen you active in a web browser in the last 10 minutes.
Sorry to be clearer: is there a way to subscribe by email without liking it?
The answer remains the same. Use the topic notification level control — that has nothing to do with “liking”. Whether or not you get an email depends on whether your web browser touched the website in the last 10 minutes.
I love you and your work dearly, but this doesn’t address the question.
Q: “Can I do x by email?”
A: “You can do x by visiting the website.”
I do not understand your question, sorry.
I think I understand - You’re asking if there are ways of changing the notification control through email only by a special reply (similar to “+1” response).
There is currently no “special” reply by email to subscribe without liking or responding; For that action it’s only available through the web app, but it is a nice suggestion.
EDIT: TIL, this is possible (below). Even while following Discourse’s development pretty closely I still miss some of these real cool ninja features!
I can’t speak to exactly what the OP was thinking of, but it would make sense to me that if you have turned on the Watching First Post mode for a category, then the email could include a button/link to directly watch the topic. Underneath the Visit Topic button maybe there could be another saying “Watch this topic to be sent emails for all replies.”
Perhaps there could also be a little explanation sentence in the footer too: “You received this email because someone replied to you/you are watching the topic/you are watching the category/you have requested notifications for new posts in this category.”
I don’t think that’s entirely true, @sam added some kind of ninja expert mode magic email reply command words but I don’t know where they are documented.
Yeah this is not documented. You can reply with the word watch to watch a topic and mute to mute a topic.
Ok this request makes more sense now @eddowding there you go ↑ ↑ ↑
Boom! Sorry for the dealy - had to be afk for a few.
This is exactly what I was after, thank you @sam for the code and @Dannii for the translation 
So next related question: is it possible to insert a link? I know we can edit templates, but does that email customisation have access to the reply key? So href=mailto:[reply-key]@[domain]?subj=[subj]&body=watch ?
Unfortunately after reading through https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/19e3b3b1bce96787e27dd59c424605a43c7bf5db/lib/email/message_builder.rb I don’t think you have a reply-key or even reply email address discrete var to use.
Maybe for the first few month add a generic link for “Getting the best out of your email experience” and add that to the bottom of all the emails. You can put a full cheat sheet there including explaining about various user settings etc.
이메일 주소의 reply* 옵션에 대한 개발 업데이트가 있는지 확인하고 있습니다. 또한, 이메일을 통해 특정 진행 중인 주제에 답장할 수 있게 해주는 것도 훌륭한 기능이 될 것 같습니다.
이 부분에 대해 더 자세한 문서가 있을까요? watch 대신 subscribe를 사용할 수 있을까요?
다시 이 주제로 돌아와 보니, 다음 옵션들이 가능한 것 같습니다:
+1 또는 like: 게시글을 좋아함watch: 주제를 관찰함track: 주제를 추적함mute: 주제를 음소거함이것들을 이메일 래퍼 템플릿 내에서 클릭 가능한 링크로 설정하여 reply key를 포함하는 mailto: 링크가 생성되도록 할 수 있는지에 대한 업데이트가 있나요? (즉, href=mailto:[reply-key]@[domain]?subj=[subj]&body=watch 형태)
매우 오래된 글이지만, 적절하게 작성된 이메일을 사용하여 특정 주제를 추적할 수 있도록 변경된 사항이 있는지 궁금합니다.
우리의 사용 사례는 다음과 같습니다. 아무리 설득하고, 설명하고, 알려주어도 중요한 주제들을 구독하지 않는 사용자들이 있습니다. 우리는 이 주제들을 사실상 메일링 리스트처럼 사용하고 있습니다.
이 사용자들이 클릭하여 특정 주제에 구독할 수 있는 간단한 mailto 링크가 있다면 좋겠습니다. 참고로 현재 해당 주제에서 이메일을 받지 않으므로, 답장할 수도 없는 상태입니다.
이전에 여기에서 이 기능이 요청된 적이 있습니다: Change notification level with a link
불행히도 이 기능에 대해 아직 진전이 없습니다.
