I don't know this application well enough to tell you if there is a specific option in its UI but whatever application you can always subscribe to receive notifications by mail on any page, space or even the whole wiki. See http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Watchlist+Application. On Wed, Sep 30, 2015 at 4:34 PM, j3rem1e <jeremie.brebec(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Hello, I use xwiki 6.4 with the forum application. I would like to subscribe to a forum and receive a notification by mail when a new subject or a comment is posted. Is it possible with the current version ? I didn't find a way to do it. Thanks!

It probably means that the change was a new document, you should subscribe to the space itself (instead of each document in the space) maybe. Basically you need to find out where the change you want to be notified is going to happen. On Wed, Sep 30, 2015 at 6:15 PM, j3rem1e <jeremie.brebec(a)gmail.com> wrote:

I tryied to subscribe to all documents on the forum space but i didn't received any mails. The watchlist works in the others spaces, though. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/ForumApplication-Subscribe-by-mail-tp7596… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi, Forum app doesn't have something special implemented in order to send mails. The Watchlist feature should work, just make sure your mail server settings are correct. Regarding the apparence in the activity stream, this is related ti the fact the forum entities are hidden, but this won't affect the Watchlist feature.

Subscribing to the space didn't work. The forum application seems to store topics and answers in a hidden document (TopicXX and TopicAnswerXX), and this document doesn't appear in the activity stream and (i suppose) are not notified through the watchlist plugin ? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/ForumApplication-Subscribe-by-mail-tp7596… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Search is again not working because of hidden, see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XAFORUM-144 Still I am not aware of any watchlist filtering of hidden pages. Hidden pages can be viewed if you change in your Profile the "Display Hidden Pages" preference. Thanks, Caty On Tue, Oct 6, 2015 at 4:12 PM, j3rem1e <jeremie.brebec(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for your answer, I have maybe something wrong with my setup : The watchlist and mail notifications have always worked correctly in xwiki, but not in the forum application (blog, faq and wiki pages work and send a notification each time the are updated). Moreover, the search function didn't work either on the forum (maybe this two issues are linked ?). I have developped a workaround with a custom EventListener for the notification. Ill try to search a little more why the native watchlist doesn't work for me. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/ForumApplication-Subscribe-by-mail-tp7596… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
