I've noticed that when I try to subscribe/unsubscribe to an existing thread or existing forum, I get a 404 not found page.
This is the link I see in my browser: https://SITE.org/usercp2.php?action=removesubscription&tid=ID&my_post_key=KEY.
But this doesn't happen when I post a new thread or make a reply and subscribe at that time. In this case subscriptions work well.
Any hint?
usercp2.php no longer exists.
it should be usercp.php, so wherever you have usercp2.php, change it to usercp.php

I was convinced about this.
So I'd need a core edit where I replace "usercp.php" wherever there is "usercp2.php", inside all affected files like showthread.php / forumdisplay.php?
No need to touch the core files.
you will see the link that contains usercp2.php in
forumdisplay_threadlist template
and i think the other one is showthread_subscription template.
just edit them there.

Found inside forumdisplay_threadlist, edited. Now it works when I subscribe to forums.
showthread_subscription instead contains the correct link to usercp.php
I'm scraping other showthread templates.
Thank you for the starter, I figured out the rest.
So here's the full solution:
You need to change the "usercp2.php" to usercp.php
in three templates:
forumdisplay_threadlist
showthread - (in only that basic/first one)
and
usercp_addsubscription_thread
After that, subscribing/unsubscribing to forums and individual threads works.
+ If you want the link's text to say something other than "Subscribe to this thread" or "Unsubscribe from this thread", then you'll need to do core level changes. But it's simple:
Go to the files of the site in question.
Then inc --> languages --> english --> showthread.lang.php
There's a long list of text links which text you can edit. Find "Subscribe to this thread" and "Unsubscribe from this thread" and change them to whatever you want.
