CCL Community members can subscribe to any of the Sitewide Forums. Subscribing gives you the option to be notified about posts and ongoing discussions.
Subscribing and unsubscribing
To subscribe:
- Select the “Subscribe” button at the top of the forum page.
- Click on dropdown arrow to select frequency of notification.
If you are already subscribed, the button will display “Unsubscribe.” Select it to unsubscribe or select the dropdown arrow to modify frequency of notification.
Subscription frequency options
- Instant: sends an email each time there is new content. This is the only option that allows the reply by email feature (see this article).
- Daily (recommended): aggregates all content in one daily email
- Weekly: aggregates all content in one weekly email
Managing all subscriptions
To manage subscription and notification preferences for all Sitewide Forums in one place, click the button with your name on the top right side of any page and select “Account Settings.” Then, click the “Subscription” tab.
To change whether or how often you are notified by email about postings, events, actions, and updates review the list of forums and forum categories at top of the “Subscription” tab. The default setting is “none.”
Click “Save” at bottom of page when finished.
Category Subscriptions
If you subscribe to a Sitewide Forum, such as "Media Relations" that has categories (such as "LTEs and Op-Eds"), you will also be subscribed to all the categories. If you wish to subscribe to only one or more of the categories, unsubscribe to the parent forum and subscribe individually to desired categories.
Topic Subscriptions and Limitations
While you can't subscribe to a topic, you can bookmark it.
If you post a new topic or reply to a topic you will be subscribed to that thread for instant updates if anyone else that responds to that topic. However, if you are already subscribed to the parent category of that forum, this topic inherits the frequency settings you've chosen for all topics in that forum.
Note: for instructions on how to manage email notifications and subscriptions to other CCL Community group forums, see this article.
