Topic: How can I automatically subscribe users whenever they post a topic?

I want it so that whenever a user posts a topic, they get subscribed to it.

This seems to mean that for every new user, I need to either have them edit their profile so that it defaults to subscribing them, or they need to do that.

How can I have it so that it defaults to subscribing them to their own posts for all new users?

Set the default value of the "auto_notify" column in the "users" table to "1".

OK, but then I have to do that every time a new user registers, correct? How can I make that field default to 1?

No, you need to do it only once.
