    Hi everyone

    I switched off the forum default email notifications by changing the default value in the member table from ‘y’ to ‘n’.

    Now, I want to change this - so that by default, members receive smart notifications when someone posts a reply on a thread they have contributed to.

    In other words - I want to make email notifications by default - but only smart notifications; not an email every time a post is made on a thread.

    What would be the best way of doing this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried just setting exp_members.smart_notifications to “y”?
    Moving to Howto.

    Oops - no, haven’t tried that!!

    If I change that, will members still be able to switch off the preference from their own personal email settings?

    Yes, this should be a user-configurable setting. Just give it a try, will you? 😊
