My users want the ability to manage the frequency of emails they receive from the forums and topics. Currently the default is one email for every topic post and many get inundated with emails. They want to be able to get a daily or weekly summary of activity, with links to specific topics they wish to read.

Is there a plug in or setting I’m missing?

Wordpress 6.1.1
bbPress 2.6.9
bbPress toolkit 1.0.12
bbPress style pack 5.2.2
BuddyPress 11.0.0

TIA

This is available as a premium add on for

bbPress Notify (No-Spam)

see digest tab in the plugin details.

Also this is old, but might still work

bbPress Digest

Thank you, Robin.

Based on the two plugins you recommended, and my reading of their documentation, what we need is something similar to bbpress digest. I installed both and bbpress notify does what it says, but users have no control over their notifications. For bbpress digest it did not do anything other than modify the admin menus. I tried changing switches but nothing seemed to change. Not surprising as it hasn’t been updated in years.

Just installed bbpress digest – nothing critical has changed in bbpress since it was written.

This adds a section to the bbpress user profile edit page which lets each user specify how often and when they get the digest.

I’ve not tested, but might be worth you taking a second look at this.

Hi Robin,

I looked at the forum screens and there is a button for adding a forum to a digest. I clicked it and it changed to give me the option to remove it from the digest.

A second link is there for editing digest settings, however when I click it, I get:

Page Not Found
The page you were looking for could not be found. It might have been removed, renamed, or did not exist in the first place.

The link is https://somd-scalemodelers.club/members/timh/edit/#bbp-digest-check-row

And if I understand correctly, that’s a function in the bbpress digest plugin php code.

Any ideas where I should look next?

Regards,
Tim

whereabouts is this?

[timholland]

When I enter a forum, where I can post topics, it’s an option under the topic list.

Currently disabled.
