If you forget to check "Email me when someone replies"when you first post, how do you do it later?

If you forget to check the "Email me when someone replies" checkbox when you first post, how do you do it later?

I'm not wanting to subscribe to an RSS feed, so the item in Options for subscribing to an RSS feed, which you read with a Feed reader, doesn't seem to be  what I'm looking for.

Three people have given the same answer, so don't give that answer again.

In the top right-hand corner of the post you will see an Options drop down list.  Choose Subscribe.

[Darren Scorpio]

To the right of my post here see where it says "Options"? Click on that and on the dropdown menu click subscribe.

You can check the setting in Settings>subscriptions to email you for threads you post in or for your posts and replies.

[Charolotte Caxton]

Click Options then Subscribe.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

That causes you to subscribe to an RSS feed, not to have email sent to you.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

That causes me to subscribe to an RSS feed, which is read with a feed reader.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

I don't think that is retroactive.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

If that is retroactive, that would apply to al threads, not a specific one.

[Suella Ember]

There are two options when you do this. One says "subscribe to RSS feed" the other just says "subscribe" - you want to use the "subscribe" one

[Peewee Musytari]

Absolutely, I was just pointing it out as an option to save you from remembering to subscribe to individual threads in future if you wanted to get emails for ones that you particiapte in....A couple of people had already said to use subscribe in options to fix your current predicament so I didn`t repeat that too...Sorry if I confused you

[Charolotte Caxton]

Um, I thought that's what I said?

Dear ChuckBaggett,

Here is the same answer again, with picture!

 

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

I am embarrased to have been so unseeing and then to have been a grouch in my comments and editing of my posts. Thanks.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

Sometimes I am not swift, and sometimes I am in a bad mood. Thanks for your help.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

Thanks for your persistence. Sorry to have been both dense and grouchy.

[Charolotte Caxton]

Awww, that is so awesome that you both realized you were being grouchy AND apologized! You are forgiven.

[ChuckBaggett1488303079]

Sorry, I don't see how I could not have seen the subscribe option, but apparently I did manage to look at those options several times and not see it. I guess maybe I saw and tried the Subscribe to RSS option first and from then on that was all I could see. I don't know.

 

At any rate, thanks everyone for being so persistent.

[Peewee Musytari]

No worries...If everyone was in a happy clappy mood every day, imagine how truely annoying the world would be lol

[TatianaDokuchic Varriale]

No worries, it really is a subtle difference when you look at the two Subscribes
