    Hi Ideschenes,

    Do you mean send notifications for some forums and not others?

    Unfortunately I don’t have the time to add this to the plugin right now as I’m booked with paid projects to which I have to give priority.

    But you can achieve this yourself using the filters bbpress_topic_notify_recipients and bbpress_reply_notify_recipients. One of the arguments is the $forum_id.

    You’d need an easy way to control which forums send notifications and which don’t. I’d suggest using a post_meta entry via a custom field or direct DB insert (there are a few plugins out there that provide custom_field access to forums via the admin).

    Then use the hooks to check if the forum is set to trigger notifications or not. If not, return an empty recipient list and it’ll stop the whole process.

    Cheers,
    Vinny

    Yes I mean “send notifications for some forums and not others”.
    Like having a check box in the Forum edit page to send/notsend notification for that particular forum.

    As I an not comfortable with coding, I will not be using the filters suggestion.
    I would be nice that you eventually include that feature into a future version (when you are less busy).

    Thanks for the quick answer.

    I’ll keep that in mind.
