Comment notifications sent to Community Users?

[intsculpturectr]

Hi All,

I’ve realized that notifications of comments are being sent to the users who submit events through the Community Events Plugin. They ask them to moderate the comments, which I don’t believe they even have the ability to do. Is this a setting easily switched off? We definitely don’t want our subscribers getting these notifications.

Thanks,

Karin J.

Hey Karin! Nice to see you again and hope all is well. 🙂

Good question. Does the same thing happen if you head to Settings > Discussion from the WordPress dashboard and disable the “Email me whenever anyone posts a comment”?

I believe that is the only way to make that happen on a WordPress without some customizations, but I’m happy to check that out further as well. Let’s at least start with that setting and see where that takes us. 🙂

Thanks!
Geoff

Hey, just following up after getting some feedback from the team. While this may not do the trick right away, it could provide the framework for disabling comments for those users:

[php]
function before_ce_editor() {
add_action( ‘save_post_tribe_events’, ‘set_comment_status_off’ );
}
function set_comment_status_off( $post_id ) {
wp_update_post( $post_id, array(
‘comment_status’ => ‘closed’
) );
}

add_action( ‘tribe_community_before_event_page’, ‘before_ce_editor’ );
[/php]

Cheers!
Geoff

Thanks Geoff, really helpful info. I’ll give the setting a try. We are checking daily for comments anyway so notifications are not necessary. Thanks!

My pleasure and please do keep me posted! Hopefully the setting does the trick but, if not, give that snippet a try. 🙂
