  Hello!

  In the past there was just a message “You are the author of this post” below my own posts. Now I have the possibility to subscribe to my own posts. Is this a bug or a feature?

  Best regards

  Not sure what you mean – where are you seeing this message? Can you send me a link?

  I see this on all posts which are posted by me.

  Previously there was a message saying “You are the author of the post.” and nothing more. I just want to know if this is an enhancement or a bug. :-)

  Best regards
  Torsten

  Those subscription options are for subscribing to comments. Depending on your moderation settings, you may already have opted to receive email notifications for new comments, in which case, you don’t need to subscribe. You can check that in your Discussion Settings (Settings > Discussions).
