Under, "Discussions I'm Following," it says,

"You are not currently following any discussions. To follow a discussion, navigate to the Discussions, find a Forum and Topic you like, and click 'subscribe.'"

I cannot find "subscribe" to click on.

Where, for example on this page

http://www.bookcountry.com/Community/Discussion/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=8589936552

does it say "subscribe"  ??

Thanks for any guidance!

Oy. By "click subscribe," we mean: "click on the little white envelope at the top left hand side of the page."

 

I will fix this wording in the logged in homepage as soon as I can figure out a concise way to communicate that.

 

In the meantime, I offer this post about how to use the discussion boards--it's full of secrets about how to subscribe and navigate so that you'll stay in the loop on the topics you want to.

 

Thanks for pointing this out, GD!

Thanks, Lucy & no problem.

I appreciate your quick reply.

 

Now that you pointed it out, I should have seen that envelope!

OK Now, how do I Unsubscribe from a discussion?

Clicking the "Subscribe/Unsubscribe" envelope does not do it.

'Course, you said you would be working on that envelope biggrin so maybe I'm whining too soon.

No worries, GD. That blog post I linked to above shows how to manage your subscriptions via your Control Panel. (There are screenshots, so check it out!)
