? Question:   My students complain that they get too many emails from the forums in Moodle. How can I help them?

√ Answer:   By default, forums in Moodle will automatically subscribe students once the student posts to the forum. If students do not want to get email updates when someone responds to them or posts in the forum, they can unsubscribe using this tutorial from our Student Moodle Tutorials area. Please share this link with students (feel free to copy and paste it into an email or announcement): https://ecampus.southwesterncc.edu/mod/page/view.php?id=107364

Please note: Announcements forums operate differently; students are automatically subscribed and cannot unsubscribe.

If you'd like to change the settings on your forums so that students are not automatically subscribed when they post, you can do so. Check out this link for more information!
