Is there not a url that the user can go to? Ideally every email that wpdiscuz sends a user (from the moment they first get a confirmation email to subscribe to a post) would include a url t a link that lets them review/manage/unsubscribe from their followed posts.
Is something like this possible already ?
wpDiscuz does not have a separate page for managing subscriptions. The user can manage everything from the subscription panel.
You can find more detailed information here https://wpdiscuz.com/docs/wpdiscuz-documentation/settings/email-subscription/
Hi thanks for the response. The thing is, that icon doesn't always appear. Does this only appear if a cookie is setup?
And what is a user to do if they don't see this icon?
In fact, I can't even make this icon appear ever if I randomly subscribe to an article on our site having followed the email confirmation msg, ie

Does this only appear if a cookie is setup?
This is only in the case of the guests. In the case of the registered users, the cookies don't matter.
If the user is logged in he/she will see the icon.
@asti I assume when you say logged in, you mean a user logged in with the WordPress login system correct ?
I believe we have logged in users disabled because I don't see lots of records in the wp_users table.
Is that were the user's are created or elsewhere?
@asti so just to clarify.... on our setup with wp login integration disabled... if as an author of previous comments I use a new browser/device that has no cookies on it, how do I get to manage those subscriptions? Because there won't be this little button of the person with a cog setting present in the interface.
The guests get an email notification there he/she can cancel subscriptions. In other words, the unsubscribe link is included in the email content.
I would agree with @adamtheforumuser. It would be great to have something like the following:
All that said, I'm very impressed with the subscription system - thank you!
@asti is something like what roshan suggests possible? It would make management so much clearer. GDPR demands that data management is made as easy as possible for the user to self-control.
