Nice job of integrating the forum.  Is is possible though to set a global notify for all postings?

Cheers

Peter

Hey Peter,

I took a quick look at SMF documentation and it doesn't look like there is an "automated" way to get notifications from all boards. I guess the only way is to go through all the boards and click "notify" button in each one of them.  :'( Fortunately, it would need to be done only once.

Thx,
michau

Another way of checking on all recent posts is:

http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?action=recent

I suspect in the long term enabling notices on all forums might impact the amount of mail you get quite a bit :)

Yeah, if only SMF was sending these recent posts via email... :-)

One more SMF feature that make life easier - something instead of global notify:

"Show unread posts since last visit."
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?action=unread

Does the trick for me.

You can also get RSS feeds of any url in SMF. (yes SMF is indeed quite an awesome piece of software, we have stuff we need to learn from it!)

here's how to get the most recent posts as an RSS feed
