Title: How do I unwatch a locked thread?
Post by: Hofy on Wed, 01 January 2014, 13:54:53

I have a thread on my watched list that is now locked and I wish to remove it.  There is no label "unwatch" to click on.

That's notifications, not watches!

Thanks, Soarer, that did the trick.  I think I will leave this on my watch list for future reference.

A workaround is to go into the thread, copy the link from the notify button, paste it into the address bar, replace "action=notify;sa=on;" with "action=unwatch;", and hit enter  ;D

Glad I found this thread, was wondering the same thing just now.
