Question

😉 AARP - How Do I Change My Subscriptions? Tks! :)

[Tuesday 9/22/26 3pm ET]

Lol, thought I had SUBSCRIBED to your "Grief & Loss Forum" so I know when someone posts in it when I am OFFLINE. Have NOT been getting any "notifications" for THIS FORUM of late.

(1) I just REdid my subscription hoping I will get "notified" (via email) moving forward. 🤞

(2) AARP Darryl had "mentioned" in one of his posts about "changing" OUR SUBSCRIPTIONS to what we want. Remember when you guys 1st setup the NEW SITE, we were ALL "automatically" subscribed to ANY topic we "responded" to. I had "shutoff" this OPTION in my SETTINGS as my IN BOX was full of emails I really DIDNOT want.

➡️[*** Lol, finally found my SUBSCRIPTIONS TAB just now. And yes, it has stuff in it I have NO interest in. How do I remove UNWANTED SUBSCRIPTIONS?

(3) I am now wondering IF my doing this (see #2), has affected getting the notifications I DO WANT (only for your Grief & Loss Forum)?

(4) Is this "fixable"?

Thanks,

Nicole 🤗💛

Hello AARP Jen ​@Jen , you guys can now "delete" this thread. I just received NOTIFICATION when you just CREATED a new thread in your "Grief & Loss" Forum. Thanks for fixing my "issue" of MISSING notifications. 🎉🙃💃👍

      AARP Jen ​@Jen , I will let you guys know IF I get "notified" when there is a NEW THREAD in your Grief & Loss Forum. Hoping my (Tuesday 9/22/26) REset of my subscription to that forum (Grief & Loss) returns them (emails). 🤞

      Until then, IF possible - please DONOT "delete" this discussion. Lol, after I see what happens is fine.

      Take care & thank you SO MUCH for supporting us here (AARP Community Board).

      The SAME for you AARP Teri, AARP Darryl & AARP Sandy. You guys are just AWESOME. 🎉

      *** I did get "notified" for activity in ONE THREAD. Grateful! Now I just need the same when a member CREATES a "new" thread. 🤞

      HAPPY WEDNESDAY ALL. 🙃

      Take Care,

      Nicole 🤗💛

        AARP Teri ​@AARPTeri , I did figure out how to REMOVE "unwanted" subscriptions from my Subscription TAB list. 👍

        Will see IF I return to receiving "notifications" for your GRIEF & LOSS FORUM as I was before TURNING OFF the "automatic" subscribing tool the NEW SETUP has.

        Thanks,

        Nicole 💛🤗
