And log from Mailgun that email went to registered members.
@moptop I'm wondering if you have a roles plugin issue. I remember having something a little different a few years back, and it was related to a wrong configuration with a roles management plugin.
Do you have any special plugin to manage your WordPress roles? If so, can you disable it and see if the issue still happens?
@realact That's an interesting note. I am using AAM Advanced Access Manager to adjust permissions of the user groups. I'm not sure though why a user would not have access to a forum, but still be receiving notifications for it.
I can't say for sure whether or not this has always been happening, or if it's just a recent development either. I have not changed any settings for years. I will look into this a bit deeper though.
Could you please switch to 2022 them in wpForo > Themes admin page?
Go to wpForo > Overview admin page, scroll down and click the [Delete All Caches] button.
Also, please leave a URL to your forum where we can register and see the subscription options in our subscriptions tab.
@robert I am still testing V2 and the 2022 theme on a staging site to make sure it works with my current site, and that I can adjust the css to look how I want, but it sounds like maybe upgrading sooner than later will need to happen.
My forum is members only with no outside registration, so I will have to send you a private invitation.
I decided that instead of troubleshooting an old version of wpForo and my staging site with the upgrade did not seem to have the same issue, that I would upgrade my live site to V2.
I am happy to say that with some testing and using an email log in sandbox mode, the unauthorized emails are not being sent in V2.
Thanks for your help, and I would say that if anyone else is experiencing the same issue, to upgrade to V2.
