I would guess most people only look at the sections that they are interested in (for me "Cyprus", "computers" and sometimes a few of the other destinations which I have set to email me if anything is posted) however its just occured to me that I might be missing posts about my prefered topics if they are posted in other sections (ie "general" or "complaints" etc)
Would it be possible to add some way of tagging/indicator to posts so they can be marked down to the country even if in a different forum ?
So someone posting a complaint about the accomdation in the complaints section could tag it to the country it was in, making those who know about that country aware (and possibly able to help out etc)
Or someone asking in general about the best country to go for a skiing holiday could tag/tickbox countries they are thinking of and people interested in those countries would see it and possibly comment on how good/bad the skiing was there
Even someone posting in Computers about wireless broadband in Menorca could tick a box that flagged it up to those interested in the "Spain" section..

'View New Posts' function which might allow you to more easily identify any discussions across the whole site by topic title which you may have an interest in.

Hi Steve ... I don't know anything about tagging, I would have to leave that to Van or Mark to answer. But are you aware of the David
I've set the site to email me when any posts are made in the Cyprus forum - So an email arrives and I spot it, come and look and see if I can help. If one doesn't arrive then I might only look in every now and again (and I've never liked the view new posts links on any forum, I don't know why)
So if someone posted in General help or complaints and said "I can't get through to our hotel its beyond a joke blah blah" but it was actually about Cyprus I wouldn't get an email and very rarely look in that forum regardless of new posts etc.
having an option tick box / scroll down selection when you post to link it to a specific country could then highlight it as part of that countires forum and send emails etc.. ?
link this post to other a specific Country
Please note - only link to a country if your post is relevant to that country only
Spain { }
Egypt { }
Cyprus {*}
Germany { }
UK { }
Greece { }
Turkey { }
that kind of thing in a scroll down box under the submit box ?
sometimes a few of the other destinations which I have set to email me if anything is posted
have I missed something
how do you set it to email when something new happens in a site you watch
Hi ray388 ...in the top left area of any of our forum pages, just below the New Topic or Add Reply buttons, you should see an option to Subscribe to that forum or topic. In doing so, you should then receive an email notification whenever someone posts in that forum or topic. It is a useful tool, although for some unknown reason it doesn't seem to work for everyone.
thanks DAVID...not sure how I missed that
