I'm getting tons of mail system delivery errors and it's obvious that the forum is sending out thousands of email notifications when users post on the forum. I have some categories that are quite busy so it's getting overwhelming. I have deactivated email notifications for these categories by creating new user groups in accesses where can subscribe is deactivated, but there are still thousands of legacy users who receive notifications. How do I stop this? It's overwhelming the system.

Thanks

hi,

Have you tried the solution provided here: https://wpforo.com/community/how-to-and-troubleshooting-2/email-notification-issue/#post-128245

@sofy so basically use something like this:

add_filter( 'break_wpforo_subscriber_send_email_after_add_post', '__return_true' );
add_filter( 'break_wpforo_subscriber_send_email_after_add_topic', '__return_true' );

Users still need to get email notification on registrations etc.

@danniee 

The filters break_wpforo_subscriber_send_email_after_add_post and break_wpforo_subscriber_send_email_after_add_topic in wpForo allow you to control the sending of subscription emails after a post or topic is created.

These filters are not related to registration emails. Their names clearly describe the purpose and the specific types of emails they control.

@sofy yes, I am aware of that. Was just making sure and asking for confirmation.
