Hi there

WordPress 4.9.8
bbPress 2.5.14

Sadly the URL is not able to be live at this time but I believe my question is actually more on the basic side of things.

When I register for an account on my website that uses bbPress all works well. I can login and subscribe to a forum. If someone creates a new topic in that forum I get a notification letting me know. However I’m noticing that if someone answers a topic in the forum I’m subscribed to I don’t get the notification.

I figured that if you’re subscribed to a Forum, that I would get notifications of replies on any topics in that forum. From what I can tell it looks like I only get a notification on new topic created.

Do I need to subscribe to the forum as well as all the topics if I want to be notified of anything happening under that forum?

Thanks,
Tanya

subscribing to a forum just gets you notifications of new topics, you then need to subscribe to the topic to get replies.

This plugin changes that so you are automatically subscribed.

topic subscribe
