Can you subscribe to threads?

I'm a member of a few forums and all of them you can subscribe to the threads and get a email when someone replies. Is there any way to do that here?

Hi Ironman,

Regretably, Proboards' software doesn't enable you to receive email notification of replies to particular threads. I can offer one possible alternative which is not ideal but you may find it helpful...

When you have prepared your reply but not yet posted it, there is a check box beneath the editor which, if checked, will bookmark the thread. Having done so, you can then go to your profile at any time and click 'bookmarks'. This will return all threads which you have chosen to bookmark. It doesn't necessarily mean there have been any replies but you can check that by seeing who posted the most recent message in the far right column.

Please note, this function is not available when using the Quick Reply box.
