Quote:Templates > Your theme > Expand Forum Display Templates > forumdisplay_threadlist

Find and remove:
<a href="usercp2.php?action={$add_remove_subscription}subscription&amp;type=forum&amp;fid={$fid}&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}">{$add_remove_subscription_text}</a>{$clearstoredpass}</strong></span>

you can remove that code segment or try using html comment tags (<!-- -->)
Thanks.
If like 50 users have already subscribed to a forum after removal of this forum subscription link, will those 50 will still be receiving emails?
^ running below SQL query should remove email subscriptions
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `subscriptionmethod` = '0'
I want that none of my user receive emails for notification of threads, forum subscription. how can i do it?
^ please run the SQL query and remove (or comment out) suggested code segments from the templates
I have got your point but what i wanted to know, i want to take out :Instant email notification" from Registration, User CP, and when a thread is posted. so that no one will recieve email notification of any kind. I have tried removing email code shown at this page http://community.mybb.com/thread-130673.html but doesn't solve the problem. Just want to keep two, "Do not Subscribe and No email notification but not the instant email notification.
