I'm still getting emails even though I turned them off

@WhatsGoodTy Did you turn off the "Automatically watch content you interact with..." option? it's on your Preferences. If you don't, you'll get emails every time, it happened to me yesterday until I figured it out.

After you turn off email notifications in your profile settings, you'll then need to go to every thread you participated in prior to doing and select the Unwatch option for it.After this, you should no longer receive any emails. If you don't want to go through and find the threads yourself, you can just wait for an email notification and then go to the thread from there to unwatch it.

made a bookmarklet to that should bulk unwatch threads before a specified date. click on your username at the top and select "your content", run the code on that page.



## 📘 Project: xenforo forum User Search Filter + Unwatch Bookmarklet

**Title:**
xenforo forum Forum — User Post Filter & Thread Unwatch Manager

**Purpose:**
To let a user automatically crawl through their xenforo forum user search pages (e.g. `https://www.xenforo forum.com/search/887/?c[users]=username&o=date`), find threads before a chosen date, and optionally “Unwatch” them all.

---

### 1. Functional Summary

| Feature | Description |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Scope** | Works only on pages that match `https://www.xenforo forum.com/search/*` |
| **Dynamic User Detection** | Extract `username` automatically from the `c[users]` parameter in the page’s query string. |
| **Cutoff Filter** | Prompt user for a date (e.g., `2025-09-01`), and collect all threads where the `<time class="u-dt" datetime="...">` value is earlier than that date. |
| **Pagination** | Automatically traverse through all pages by reading `.pageNav-page a[href*="page="]` links. |
| **Unwatch Option** | After listing filtered threads, the user can choose to automatically unwatch each of them by following their thread page and clicking the `<a data-sk-unwatch="Unwatch">` link. |
| **Output** | Results shown via alerts and console logs (thread URL, post date). |
| **Safety** | Does not send external requests; uses xenforo forum’s same-origin credentials. |

```javascript
Code: 
(async () => {
  // Extract username from URL query parameters
  const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
  const username = params.get("c[users]");
  if (!username) {

  const cutoffInput = prompt(`Enter cutoff date for user "${username}" (YYYY-MM-DD):`);
  if (!cutoffInput || isNaN(Date.parse(cutoffInput))) {
    alert("Invalid date format. Use YYYY-MM-DD.");
    return;
  }
  const cutoffDate = new Date(cutoffInput);

  if (!confirm(`Scan all pages for posts by "${username}" before ${cutoffDate.toDateString()}?`)) return;

```

## ✅ Example Use

1. Go to a page like:

```
https://www.xenforo forum.com/search/887/?c[users]=usernameGoesHere&o=date
```

2. Click your bookmarklet.

3. When prompted, enter a date (e.g. `2025-09-01`).

4. The script will:

* Identify the username dynamically (`usernameGoesHere`),
* Crawl all pages of results,
* Filter by date,
* Offer to unwatch old threads.

5. See the detailed results in your browser’s console (press **F12 → Console**).

Would you like me to add an option so the results (URLs + dates) are also **downloaded as a CSV file** for record-keeping or backup?
