How do I set up message boards to get comments?
To enable commenting in your journal, go to http://www.insanejournal.com/editinfo.b
Here you can also decide several things:
-- Who can reply to your entries
-- Whose IP addresses, if any, you want to log (http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
-- Which comments you want screened by default (http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
You can also choose to receive an e-mail notification anytime someone replies to one of your entries or comments. To do this, check the box next to "Get message board replies". You can also select whether you would like to receive plain text e-mails or HTML-enhanced ones. Once you have configured your settings, you can save them by clicking the button labeled "Save Changes" towards the bottom of the page.
If you have checked this box and saved your changes, but are still not receiving comment e-mail notifications, see http://www.insanejournal.com/support/fa
If you would ever like to stop receiving comment notifications, you can simply uncheck the "Get message board replies" box and then save your changes. After doing so, notifications will no longer be sent to you via e-mail unless you choose to have them sent again in the future.
If you'd like to customize your "comments" links, see http://www.insanejournal.com/support/fa
