Hi,

Is there a way to auto-subscribe to all threads for all user accounts automatically? I mean, instead of letting the users to pick which thread to receive notification from, I would like them all to receive all.
Also if a user A creates a new thread, all the users should be auto-subscribed to the new thread and get an email rite away.

We have a heavy traffic on the forums and users create many new threads sometimes on hourly basis. We can not tell out users to keep looking for new threads and as soon as there is a new one subscribe to that. Due to the nature of our business every user should be subscribed to all the threads.

Any pointers/workarounds ?

Thank you.

You have "heavy traffic" and you want to fill up members email? Sorry, I'd quit your board in a heart beat. You can automatically subscribe them if they make a post. You should post that over at VB.com, as it is standard.

how a user wishes to manage their forum is not for you to decided or give an opinion on nakedanvil :)

we in fact want to do the same thing thus forcing users to unsubscribe from what they don't want. this helps get users to engage
