I apologize for asking another question related to “Subscribe”. This question has been asked before but it is still not clear to me what it does.
Is it supposed to email the subscriber if a new topic or reply is created?
I tried that and have not received anything.

Thank you.

@mica123 ,

I suppose you refer to bbpress on wordpress ?

You can subscribe to a forum and then you should get emails when a new topic is created.
You can subscribe to topics and then you should get an email when replies are given to the topic.

Hope this answers ?

@mica123

Make sure that a user is actually subscribed so that they receive the subscription emails. Some users get confused and think they get the emails magically sometimes without subscribing to a topic or forum.

Subscriptions

Also install this, because sometimes the emails just do not send as they caught up in spam folders. The functionality in the plugin will most likely get into the bbPress plugin in the future.
