stoneharborlady Posted May 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Never had this problem before. Two days ago every new topic posted on this forum started showing up in my email. How do I turn this off? Gave a quick look here, but cannot find anything. Thank you if you can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pompeii Posted May 22, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) There is a little button marked "Follow" to the right of the Princess Cruises title. Maybe you clicked on that by mistake? If so, unclick it and see if that helps. Actually, if you've clicked follow, it may say "unfollow" now. Either way, click that button and that should do it.

Rare ceilidh1 Posted May 22, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I had something similar - a post I had commented on suddenly started sending email notifications everytime someone commented on it! I have notifications turned off, but it still keeps sending them! It's just one post, others are all fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted May 22, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) Follow the procedure voljeep posted to see these options to turn off the automatic notifications. That became a problem last week but don’t know if it’s a glitch or change with CC. After removing the check marks to both notification options the problem was corrected.

Hopefully CC will eliminate the new default setting to automatically make us follow content so we can once again decide which ones to follow.

Rare Mary229 Posted May 22, 2019 #8 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I had the same problem. Not only did I have to change in on account settings but I had to go my manage followed content and turn them off individually. Once I did that no new ones have been added to auto email, TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had everything turned off in account settings but for some reason in followed content, they were still checked to send notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After changing my account settings options I also had to manually remove the previously automatically added threads to stop receiving unwanted notifications.

Plant Posted May 23, 2019 #11 Share Posted May 23, 2019 When you post there's a "Notify me of replies", button at the bottom left. Try clicking that when you post to stop the notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to think how these would clog up my in-box when I go away next time. This thread and the one from HAL have all the necessary information, or at least for me to eliminate the dozens of daily messages that had my Apple Watch buzzing constantly. These steps worked for me: 1. Go to the top right corner of the page, just above the search box, and click on "Aus Traveller" 2. Under Settings, click on Manage Followed Content 3. There should be a list of all of the threads for which you are receiving notifications. For each one, click on Change Preference. You can either change the type and frequency of notifications you will receive for those you wish to continue getting, or you can click on the red Unfollow button to stop them altogether. You can do this individually for each thread or select all of them and do a batch Unfollow. Hopefully this will work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had to manually delete the threads CC automatically created to follow a thread before discovering a solution. Several days ago I emailed the CC Help section asking if the change is the new default or is a glitch in their system...no response.
