Subscribed button says zero

My ‘Watching’ and ‘Subscribed’ plugins seem to be working except that they always display 0 in the javascript buttons at the top of the forum (screenshot attached) even when I’m subscribed to topics.

Any thoughts?

The zero denotes that there are no new posts to read in any of the subscribed or watched topics. It is a count of new posts.

Hi there, could you tell me how to remove the : after subscribed and the zero so it just says subscribed.

I’ve checked out some of the template files that come with this plugin but cannot find the right place to edit that button.

Thanks very much, Stefan

yes we can help with this but before we do that are you really sure about this? Is it not going to be rather odd to have a button that when clicked on might open up an empty popup? Is that not a bit confusing to your end-users? Might it not be better to just remove it if you think you do not need the new post notifications?

I am with Andy, not sure why you would want to do that…  no longer get any indication that some subscribed topics have unread updates…

but we give you the power… ;)

in your sp theme, template file spHead.php is where we output the button…  just change ‘Subscribed:’ to whatever you want…

you will need to use css to hide the count then…

#spSubCount {display:none;}
