Unsubscribe Button on Forum Page

There is. Take a look right above your post. You'll see three actions - Subscribe, Rate This and Comments. Click on the "Subscribe" button, which will give you the option of subscribing to a post or unsubscribing if you are already subscribed and no longer wish to be.

Thanks, Chris. Silly me...for not wondering why no one else was asking. Now I only wish I could go back and remove my post...or just my name from the post. But that's a nuther discussion. huh!

Oh, yes. Then, since it's a Subscribe and Unsubscribe button...that toggles, perhaps one day it could be labelled something like:

Just a suggestion.

I always unsubscribed in my list of subscribed discussions. I always use that as my "home page" for this forum and under the list you can see 2 actions, one says show checked as read and the other says unsubscribe from checked.

In front of each thread you are subscribed to you have a tick box so you can manage all your subscriptions in one go.

Thanks case, I was aware of using the check list via profile page. But I do like the shortcut method, using the button; it's nice when closing a forum page that you've seen enough of before "answering" the next CR4-alert email 'cuz it saves some steps and distraction from what you're doing.

I do think...maybe for some...that more clearly labelling the button could be helpful--after all, you've gotta click it before you know there's "Unsubscribe," if that is your intention. Otherwise (and unless you had previously subscribed using the button) how would you know that the Subscribe button was also an Unsubscribe button. See what I mean?

Yes I do and I think in that respect you are right, I had not noticed that that particular button was schizophrenic.

I always use the list as my start and finish point so I never needed another one.

Life was not meant to be a short cut. The worst thing that ever happened to computers is the concept of 'icons' and point-and-click. In some places we even have point-and-click programming. Guttenburg is spinning in his grave. To say nothing of Newton, Pascal and Bohr. Hizenburg is here, or, at least, somewhere around here.

If you knew how to do it why go through all this rigamarole?

Just so you might have an alternative way to do your rigamarole?

Chris, I can't say for sure whether I've noticed those buttons before or not...

They need to be either a different color or significantly darker. When I see a grey button, I just assume it can't be used at the moment. But then I'm a Mac user...

If you click on your name the system will bring you to your personal account. From there you can look at your subscriptions and check the box next to the thread you want to unsubscribe from, then click 'unsubscribe' at the bottom of the page.

Thanks for asking the question cowanon.

At last!

Some of you guys have been making a significant contribution to my JUNK FOLDER,

Now I see how you get so many posts to your name, -piffle and waffle.

Hats off to those with so many good answers though.

Now where is that unsbscribe button.. under 'subscribe'....of course,...like 'turn off' is under 'start'

"...like 'turn off' is under 'start'..."

MiniSquishy has SO many 'undocumented features' like that, we all should be used to the concept by now, shouldn't we!

Still, I concur with the Mac user who suggested the buttons be a brighter color, even Windows "grays out" things that are turned off. In fact, so does the toolbar above this message even as I'm typing it.

And I concur on the 'thanks' due Cowanon for asking the question.
