How do I watch or subscribe to forums?

In order to stay notified of recent posts on a forum, the Watch option is helpful in doing so.

Note: New post notifications will be sent to the user's external/institutional email address, not via the Messages tool.

Go to Forums.

Select the Forums tool from the Tool Menu of your site.

Click Watch.

Choose your notification preference.

Select whether an email is desired for every new message posted on the Forum, every new message posted on a Forum that the user has contributed to, or turn off all notifications.

Click Save.
