How to view "watched topics" !?

Post Reply New Topic

Below each thread there's a link "Watch this topic for replies". But how do I list those in the same manner is I can list all my postings ..?

Can you edit/rephrase your last sentence. I don't understand what you are asking.

I want to list all threads I have clicked as "watched".

There is no facility to do that.

Then why is the "Watch this topic for replies" link there in the first place?

All that does is set the topic to send you emails when replies are made to the topic. If I'm not mistaken, it only works from the first page of the topic for some reason.

If you participate in any topic, you should be getting emails automatically for that topic, but sometimes it doesn't work and you'll have to click that link from the first page. Occasionally that glitches too, so it can be a crap shoot at times.

Another way to view lists of threads you are participating on is through your profile.

Click "My Account," then click "View Your Profile." You'll see a link on the following page called, "Find all posts by..."

But that will only show you threads in which you've posted, not one's you haven't posted in, even if they are marked "watched."

Gah.. missing feature.

And of course one can't unsubscribe either because there's no way to list the threads.

Yes, you can, but you do have to navigate to the thread in question first, which is fairly easy to do by using the links in the emails you receive from subscribed topics. Any topic you are subscribed to will have a link at the bottom of each page that say, "Stop watching this topic." Click that and you'll stop receiving emails on that topic. There isn't any way to select multiple topics and unsubscribe from several at once though, if that's what you mean.

You can use email filters to either delete emails from WP, or send them to a folder. That's what I do. All my watched topic emails go to their own folder so they never show up in my inbox and clog it. I have that filter set up so that only PM's and replies to a single thread on WP stay in my inbox. If you set them up carefully, it's not too hard to do.

I just review and clean out the folder where they are dumped periodically.
