| not at the moment, I think it would take some fairly extensive code to do that.< |

| Wouldn't subscribing to a certain reply simply be subscribing to that particular topic anyways? I mean, if you subscribe to a reply, and someone else replies to the same topic, won't you get an email whether you're subscribed to the reply or topic? If that's the case, and you want people to be able to subscribe from any reply, just add the topic's Subscribe link to each reply.< |

It's going to be a lot more difficult than you initially think involving a few new fields in the database, a rewrite of the function that sends out subscriptions and appending reply IDs to the appropriate links and retrieving them in post.asp to name but a few. And what of those members who quote another reply using quick reply? You're going to find it a lot of work implementing something like this due to the linear (as opposed to threaded) nature of posts in Snitz.

I agree. This sounds like something that might not be all that simple. What would you do, for instance, if someone manually typed their reply, but quoted someone else? I know, quite often, I'll go back and edit a post to add things that I remembered just after posting. You'd have to have a pretty extensive RegEx (at the very least) set up to try and parse message strings finding: 1) quote tags, and 2) which user they are quoting (if it's even specified).
Good luck to you, but I have a feeling this might be more work than it's worth.< |

Thank you actually there will be different REPLY button on each message would be the key to "Post Subscription". I mean if a person does not click on REPLY button on each message it would not register as "quote" even quoted from somewhere else.
I'll give it a try, hope I will share if I succeed somehow :)
And yes, it sounds a lot of work if I actually figure out "subscription" part. Probably main problem would be making a post something BOTH to actual "post reply requester" and those who subscribed to whole topic.
