Follow => Watch Member

Alpha1

Well-known member
I would like my members to be able to Watch Members. It could work like this:
The follow button would have a drop down just like the 'Find' button has. The drop down would be 'Watch'

Users would get alerts about activity by users that they Watch.

It would be useful to have preferences or global settings to limit this behavior to:
- alerts only.
- alerts for certain actions only.

I thought XF2 will come with this, and the first thing I did in its demo was to follow someone. But I saw it wasn't added yet.

Hope to see it.
 
It’s working great in mine

Alright, cool.
Could you link me the resource or share the code please?
You've linked me an announcement of the feature but nothing technical.
 
This would be an awesome feature. Honestly I thought that's what follow did and I was confused when I followed someone that I didn't get alerted to their post.
 
I honestly thought that's what follow member did. Watch member addon exists but sorry that wording is a little strange and creepy.

"Follow" should "watch"
 
Yeah it would be nice if when you follow a member you could choose if you're going to be notified if they:
  • Make a new thread
  • Reply to a post
  • Post an article (addon)
  • Write a review (addon)
