** Use of this plugin is not recommended in versions of BuddyPress 1.2 and higher. Please consider using BuddyPress Group Activity Notifications instead: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-activity-stream-subscription/. A conversion script for converting subscription data from this plugin to that one is coming soon **
Features: 
Users can subscribe to individual discussion topics from within BuddyPress; 
Users can subscribe to discussions on a group-by-group basis; 
Users are automatically unsubscribed from a group’s discussions when they leave the group; 
Administrators can subscribe all users to the appropriate forums with a single click (potentially handy for first-time setup); 
Administrators can toggle whether email notification is turned on by default; 
Administrators can toggle whether posters receive notification of their own posts.
Developed for the CUNY Academic Commons. Visit http://commons.gc.cuny.edu to learn more about this neat project.
<h3>Running BP < 1.1?</h3>
If you plan on having your members use the bbPress interface in addition to/instead of the BuddyPress forums interface (something you can only do if you are running bbPress in a separate installation, which means you’re almost certainly running BP < 1.1) do the following steps as well:
<ul>
<li>Upload <code>bb-group-forum-subscription</code> to <code>[bbpress-directory]/my-plugins</code></li>
<li>Activate the plugin on the bbPress admin page 
In <code>[bbpress-template-directory]/topic.php</code>, replace the code 
user_favorites_link(); 
with 
user_favorites_link( array(‘mid’ => __(‘Subscribe to this discussion’)),array(‘mid’ => __(‘Unsubscribe from this discussion’)));</li>
</ul>
