    In progress How to stop moderator receiving emails of status

    Post by Guardian-Angel September 19th 2015, 11:35 pm

    Hello

    When I make any changes to a moderator status for certain topics, they receive an email. How can I prevent an email being sent to a mod whenever I change their permissions?

    Thanks

    Hello,
    Have they tried turning off notifications by email in their profile?

    I would have thought there would be an option in the AP on whether to send an email to a mod if there are any changes to their permission. Turning off notifications of course will prevent all notifications.

    The most assured way.

    I don't think there is one for permissions specifically. Then again I never even knew it sent emails out for that. Disabling notifications through the profile to not send emails would be the assured and effiecent way of preventing this from happening.

    I have never heard of an email about changing moderators' permissions?  What exactly do you mean by this?

    If I remove a mod's permission in a category, they receive an email notifying I did that. I wanted to remove that option of sending them an email.

    Well, this is something new to me.

    Could you please post a screenshot of the email that the moderators got about changing permissions?

    I apologize. I just tested it and it didn't send out the notice.

    Several months ago, when I was making some changes, a mod had contacted me because they received a notification so I thought I'd ask before I made changes.

    Topic solved.

    Thanks

    Was it exactly about permissions or was it about adding/removing someone from the moderator group?

    Hello

    Moderators don't receive any email notifications when you change the permissions Smile However, if you have a screenshot of the email, don't hesitate to provide it Smile
