Track Posts in a Discussion Forum
Introduction
Discussion forums
in Angel can be in any folder. There are two easy ways to stay updated
with posts,
-
by checking What's New or Tasks and
-
by subscribing to forums.
What's New in
Discussion forums
Each time you log
on to your Angel course, check the What's New option and the Tasks option at
the bottom of left panel by clicking on them.
-
What's New shows all
unread posts. You can click on the name of the forum and go directly to
the unread posts.
Subscribe to a Discussion forum and receive messages in your email
You can "subscribe" to a forum and receive posts in your email. In order for this to work you have to have set your mail preferences to have mail forwarded to your email outside of Angel. To subscribe to a forum:
- Navigate to the
forum and click to open it. Click the Utilities option.
- On the Utilities
menu, click Subscribe.
- The option turns into "Unsubscribe" and you are subscribed. Click Done.
- Repeat for each
forum to which you want to subscribe.
