Subscribing to Wiki Changes
Subscribing to wiki changes allows you to receive a notification any time a particular page on the wiki changes. There are two flavors of subscription:
- Subscribing to individual pages
- Subscribing to all pages
Important: You must have a wiki account and be logged in to manage your page subscriptions. If you don't have an account yet, read how to create a wiki account.
Here's how it works:
Subscribing to a particular page
- Browse to the page for which you would like to add a subscription
- Click the “Manage Subscriptions” button at the bottom of the page
- Select the first option under the “Subscribe” box. This should be the address of the page you are on. For example, subscribing to this page will show “howto:subscribe_to_changes”.
- Choose your notification method, either once for every change, or a digest email sent less frequently.
- Click the subscribe button.
Subscribing to all wiki pages
- Go to the start page.
- Click the “Manage Subscriptions” button at the bottom of the page.
- Select the second option under the Subscribe box. This should be a single asterisk(*) character.
- Choose your notification method, either once for every change, or a digest email sent less frequently.
- Click the subscribe button.
After you click subscribe, you should see a message at the top of your screen indicating that you have been added to the subscription list for whatever page you subscribed to.
