Seeing replies to your post(s) in question threads

Hello!

When posting in a thread, is it possible for there to be a feature implemented so that users can get a notification when someone has replied to / quoted their posts?

There is something similar available on the Tapatalk app, where you get a notification if someone has quoted your post. Also, the notify button after you post your thread, you can receive email notifications but it still involves going through the thread rather than navigating to a direct reply to your post.


Thanks :)

Definitely need this. Similar to this there should be a feature where you can mention a user (without quoting) and that user should get a notification.

E.g. @Im21074

Good suggestion. I think the closest function we have to this in the current forum infrastructure is the "new replies to your posts" - that will at least allow you to see topics that have been posted in since you last posted in them :)

Agree! I also wish that we could have an 'archive' of all of our posts and replies so that I won't have to manually screenshot them and file it myself.

Correct me if this isn't what you're thinking of - but there is something very similar! Click on 'My Profile' in the top right hand corner, or the 'Profile' button to see your profile. Under your DP there is a 'Show Posts' link that should show your posts in reverse chronological order in groups of 15.

EDIT: Also, each post has a link back to the original post in its thread and board - super handy!
