| Instant Notification of Topics and Replies! {PLEASE READ} | |

| Okay, so I did some rummaging through the options of the forum, | |
| and I have had a breakthrough! YAY! | |
| Doug asked me on Sunday if I could find a more aggressive way to | |
| alert people to when new topics and replies have been posted. | |
| Well, I have found it. (And Doug, if you want to send this out | |
| to those people who haven't signed up yet [see Roll Call], go | |
| right ahead) Here are the step-by-step instructions. I recommend | |
| opening this in another tab in case you forget a step. | |
| 1. Click on 'Profile' on the bar beneath the "Hello _____" | |
| 2. On the left-hand side of the screen, you will see three | |
| different sub-categories. Under "Modify Profile", click | |
| 'Notifications' | |
| 3a. Check BOTH of the boxes. (THIS IS AN EDIT) | |
| 3b. Go to the next option, setting it to 'Instantly' | |
| 3c. Set the last one to 'Replies and Moderation' | |
| Now normally, when you reply to or create a topic, you are | |
| instantly sent notifications of when someone replies to the same | |
| topic. If you would like to be alerted every time someone posts | |
| a topic/reply on a specific board (which is recommended), you | |
| will want to click on that specific board (from the main menu) | |
| and in the right-hand corner, is a button that says 'NOTIFY'. | |
| I have all of the boards on my notification watch, so I | |
| hopefully won't be missing anything. If this confused anyone, | |
| please reply and I'll help you through. :) | |
