Then use the Watchlist. You can add boards to it, so any time someone creates a thread in that board, it will show up on the page. No notifications though (there would be many unnecessary ones anyways). Just visit the Watchlist and see which new threads were made.
And would you really want to get notified everytime someone makes a thread? The flow of news threads per day is pretty big. I’m not sure how would you benefit from this.
I know Watchlist gives an option to add boards to the list but adding the board gives all the new thread created on that board which will be too much. Then that is again the same thing instead of checking the board directly, I am looking at the Watchlist. And I do not want to get notified for every thread.
Oh, I see. So you didn't literally mean a notification of a new forum topic, but rather a notification for any topics of discussion you were interested in. Well, without probably relying on users to tag their posts/topics correctly with specific keywords this would likely be complicated to implement and take a bit of work to be effective.
Yes, I did mean a notification for the topic which I am interested in.
If you're truly interested in certain things I would just suggest browsing those specific subs as often as you can.
As I will not be online everytime and check who as posted the topics which I am interested in, I thought it would be good if we get a notification for that. So that when a thread is posted, we get the notification and we can post on that thread at that time only or whenever we are online. In this way, we do not miss any topics.
