Post subject: [NOT SOLVED]Icy Phoenix 1.3.0.53 - Digest & Subscriptions

I am having a problem figuring out exactly how to Subscribe To A Forum so that the Digest will send me the daily emails. I am receiving the emails but, it is empty because my profile states that I am not Subscribe To A Forum. I go to a Forum and I can not figure out how to subscribe to it.

Maybe, I turned something off in the ACP. I don't know.

I need some guidance, Please.

Thanks,

Dave

Dave

Go to Profile - Preferences

Third option from the top:

Notify on response

Second.

On top right you´ve got the option to subscribe to every forum

click on this text in the forum you want to subscribe to

Watch this forum for posts

You find this text there the PM link, unanswerd post etc. are

Sypdie thanks for taking the time again with me.

Below is my Preferences. I have highlighted the, "Set bookmarks automatically when posting." It is set to NO. Should that be set to YES?

I think That´s not necesary but you can try.

The importand thing for me is notify on replies ON.

Does the subscribe function work now ??

Mighty Gordon,

I have mine set up just like the example that you directed us to. The fact is, I am not able to find how to subscribe to a forum on my site.

Spydie,

I went one step further as suggested. This is what I have:

Post subject: Re: Icy Phoenix 1.3.0.53 - Digest & Subscriptions

Now I am confused. That is a topic within a forum that has a poll above it.

No test account but, I can set one up. tell me what i need to do and it's done.

No it is not.....Bingo, maybe? I take it that it should read Yes. Your site is very nice. How do you find time to help here....amazing.

I turned it on. Went to General > Mass Email and sent an email to this volunteer group of which I am the moderator. I would think, that I should have received the email but, I did not.

I still do not have a means to Subscribe to a Forum so that I receive the Digest with entries in it. I do receive the Digest and it states:

There are no new messages for the forums you selected.

The problem is when I go to my profile or click on Digest, I see the same as the display provided by MG here: http://www.icyphoenix.com/digests.php . However the only thing that is checked in my case is: All Subscribed Forums There are no other Forums listed because, I can not figure out how to subscribe to a forum.

Please review the previous post and the pictures so that you have a full understanding of my problem.

Thank you,

Dave

Guys... as I said Digests forum are ONLY controlled by Digests page!

The fact that you don't receive any content is because you log in to your forum and Digests won't send you messages posted before you last login time.

Try this and you will see that Digests is working fine:

Create a fake user with a real email you can check.
Enable the Digest for that user and select all forum and Daily delivery.
Do not login anymore with that user... at least for a couple of days.
That user should receive Digests email correctly...

Can you try this?

As I said... Digests and Subscriptions are not linked... they are different things.

Ok, I have created an account as you suggested MG.

I guess what is confusing is that in the Digest area on my profile at my site, the bottom of the page states:

Quote:
Send digests for these forums: All Subscribed Forums

To me that suggests that I need to subscribe to the forum.

When I look at my Digest Page here on your board, there is a whole list of Forums that I supposedly have subscribed to.

Send digests for these forums:
All Subscribed Forums
News And Announcements
VIP Area
Patches
Documentation And How To
General Support
Bugs
Templates And Styles
Icy Phoenix Customizations
Translations
Older Versions Archive
phpBB 3 MODS And Styles
FAP Support
FAP General Discussions And Customizations
Other Mods Support
Free PHP Scripts
Show Off
Test Forum
English Chit Chat
Italian Chit Chat
Templates And Styles Discussions

I guess what it boils down to is understanding the definition of the word subscribe.
