    When subscribing to a forum

    When subscribing to a forum on a vBulletin, what exactly does it do? Does it only add a link in your User CP, so that you can see in your User CP when there has been a new thread (or post)?

    Also, is there a way so that whenever someone makes a new thread (or post) in one forum, then an email will be sent to me, notifying me about it, just like when subscribing to threads?

    I'm unsure about this, because I don't usually subscribe to forums, until I needed to, to know when new threads are posted in certain forums (without having admin access!).

    Thanks to whoever replies!

    That's it. It doesn't do anything in vB2.

    Admin CP -> Forums & Moderators -> Modify -> [edit]. It's in there.

      Thanks jakeman, but in my first post, I stated the following:

      (without having admin access!)

      So I'm wondering, is this possible? I'm guessing no though, since I can't find a solution

        Jake's solution will work for you. We are, of course, assuming you are the Admin and have access to your own Admin CP. You can put whatever email addresses you want in those fields - not just Admins or Mods.
