Subscribing to a Category:
This tip enables you to receive updates on a particular thread.

If you would like to receive email updates on an entire category, such as "General Discussions", follow these easy steps (for this example, I will be using the "General Discussion" category):

1. From the home page of ThinnerTimesForum, click "General Discussions"
2. In the dark blue heading, you will see "Threads in Forum: General Discussion"
3. In that same heading, if you move to the right of the screen, you will see a button that says "Forum Tools" - there is a down arrow right next to it.
4. Click "Forum Tools", and in the menu that appears, click "Subscribe to This Forum"

Subscribing to a Particular Thread:
This tip is different from the one above, as it will only give you email updates on a particular thread, or posting.

When you're reading a thread, or area where you see postings (for example General Discussions):

1. In the same location as the "Forum Tools" in the tip above, you will now see "Thread Tools"
2. Click "Thread Tools"
3. In the menu that appears, click "Subscribe to this Thread"
