BuddyPress Group Email Subscription – how to turn off courses notifications

[Walter]

Hi,
We are using that well known plugin that does a great job for daily digest of group by email. But with your theme, we receive notifications for all sort of “useless” information: when a user start a class, a quiz, finish a quiz, finish a session – I meant this is way too many notifications. I did turn off those notifications in the group settings without results. Could you please help me to remove those nagging notifications ? that would be much appreciated.

below is an example of an email –

Class Summary:
Daily Sitting Meditation (18 items)
Class: Daily Sitting Meditation
To disable these notifications for this class click unsubscribe – change email options

Hi @adminchroncleproject-com, Sorry for the delayed response..

Please let me know which Courseware plugin you are using Sensei / Learndash

These mails comes through plugin functionality you can also consult to plugin developers if they can help you better to block the admin email.

We are using Sensei.

Aalso we turn off notifications in a course and we still see them in the activity feed of the course. We would like that to work like it is supposed to.

that really brings a lot of “noise”, like the duplicate – join course, than join group, etc.

It seems that is causing the problem with the email notifications plugins – if those notifications were turn off as they should be per the options, the plugin would not send them.

Thank you.

Hi @adminchroncleproject-com, You can use ‘BuddyPress Block Activity Stream Types’ plugin it will “block” an activity record from being saved to the stream/database
