Subscribe autochecked when answering thread (RESOLVED)
Sunday, April 28, 2013 by 2of3 | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
I would rather that it be something that you need to check yourself.
Small thing but maybe others agree?
EDIT:
Resolved, Thanks!

I'd subscribe...or is it prescribe...to that.

Is it just me or has it already been changed to unchecked by default now?
Reply #8 Sunday, April 28, 2013 4:42 PM
now when you open the thread you are automatically subscribed.
open post, uncheck subscribe, to much trouble. someone email me when it's fixed.

Of course there is the other approach we can all take, don't reply to any threads, someone is bound to figure out there is a problem.

It's just you. No change here.

Just noticed that. I was wondering why up top where it says subscriptions there was a 1 posted there. Now I know why. Uncheck before posting.

It does seem to remember my preference on each thread, now. Perhaps it's a cookie thing....haven't cleared them since I wrote this.

I believe that was resolved a week or so ago. You would need to make sure to logoff, clear cookies, and login again.

Correction: I just tried it out with XP/IE8. On posts I have not replied to before, it is still checkmarked by default.
Reply #18 Monday, April 29, 2013 12:07 PM
Yep, still auto-checked on posts on which the user has not replied.

Ok, you have the option to stop that here.

Under the options tab, just unselect "

I've just done that - though you shouldn't have to, it shouldn't be on by default.
I've also unticked 'subscribe to this post' as well, just to be sure. Let's see what happens ![]()

What's most annoying is that you have to remember to uncheck it every time you reply.....could the site at least remember your preference for that particular thread?
