Hi all,
in sp admin there’s an option to let users subscribe entire forums besides single topics.
I checked that option, but I cannot understand how users can do it. Is there a button or something other that I’m not seeing?
Thank you for reply Sword!
I’m glad it’s normal not having “subscribe” button at the bottom of each forum.
I was afraid there was some error in my sp.
Thinking about it… users see the “subscribe” button at the bottom of each topic, I think it’s normal they aspect to see it each forums also… don’t you think?
I was kind of expecting this question as a follow-up!
I am going to have to defer to Mr Papa on this one to explain the philosophy behind this design decision.
lol Sword, I sait that just for chipchat, but now I’m interested in Mr Papa Design Philosophy! 
back to my problem. I found the profile tab where checking the forums I’d like to subscribe, but the “save settings” button does not work. and is the only one not working in the profile section.
the forum is this one: http://www.endodonzia.it/forum/
If you have time to have a look I can send you a pm with a test account credentials
Curious.
Is any message displayed below the form when you click on the update button? You may need to scroll down a bit to get it all on the screen to see…
nope, actually the subscription tab is the only one that is not working, maybe because I’m using a wp admin account?
No the account is not a problem.
Can you try an update and then look at the admin > toolbox > error log to see if anything relevant got reported. You may have other, unrelated entries of course.
I see the PM and can access your site but can you answer the question I asked in the above post please?
Hi Sword,
I will do it asap and I’ll answer. (I cannot do automatic updates, crappy hosting, does not work)
please let us know…
as to no subscribe to forum button, Andy may not remember, but we discussed it during development… 
the choice at that time was to not clutter up the display with another button… there are quite a few already… and wait and see if anyone requested or wanted such a button… in the many months since its release, you are the first to ask!
but we can certainly consider adding one… but to be complete, would need to be on group view, forum view and topic view… hence the potential clutter…
Is any message displayed below the form when you click on the update button?
Hi Sword,
sorry for delay but I did not notice your question.
Actually no, there’s no message and no error at all, not even a js error.
But I’ve made some work on a mirror site trying to reproduce the error, and I spoke about it in this post:
https://simple-press.com/support-forum/sp5-general-topics/after-5-0-to-5-1-0-upgrade-profile-page-profile-tabs-and-menu-settings-are-empty/page-2/
On the mirror site I fixed errors removing single quotes from subscriptions translation files (I’m using italia localization)
unfortunately using the “fixed” translations in the main website did not fix this problem 
you probably want to housekeeping revert the profile panels first… then fix the translation… once its broker, its broke in the db…
