I just wrote a little hack to do it. Seems very low prioirty for the bbpress team.

Actually, what I hacked was the bbPress Custom Topic & Reply Notifications plugin. I was already using it on the site and it is a much more manageable thing to hack.

You can get in touch directly if you want to do the same. wembaster at northshorehikers.org

Makes the users happy.

For future consideration.

Please add two hooks in bbpress/includes/common/functions.php after lines 1105 and 1245 to filter the array of user ids.

Something like
$user_ids = apply_filters( ‘bbp_forum_subscription_mail_ids’, $user_ids );
and
$user_ids = apply_filters( ‘bbp_topic_subscription_mail_ids’, $user_ids );

Thanks for the quick response.

Since I need to prevent email going to some members who have already subscribed to forums and topics, looks like I need to hook into:

bbp_pre_notify_subscribers
bbp_pre_notify_forum_subscribers

or perhaps put my own versions of these functions in my child theme:

bbp_notify_forum_subscribers
bbp_notify_subscribers

Am I on the right track?

Thanks.
