avoid nodebb send email notifications if daily digest is on

[Sebastián Cisneros]

If a user has the digest email set to daily / weekly / monthly , still gets notification emails each time a new event fires.

I was wondering if there is a way to avoid email notifications to be sent if the digest is different to "off"

maybe using one of these hooks?

filter:email.prepare
filter:email.cancel
filter:email.params
filter:email.modify
filter:email.send

Thanks for the help.

A user can select how they get notifications on the user settings. You can set the default settings for new users in the admin panel.

@PitaJ Thanks for the reply, but I'm actually looking to change the behavior nodebb has by default.

So I want users that choose to get notifications through email digest not ro receive email notifications. The users that don't choose email digest will get email notifications as usual.

So I was wondering which is the right hook to to this filter.

@Sebastián-Cisneros said in avoid nodebb send email notifications if daily digest is on:

filter:email.prepare
filter:email.cancel
filter:email.params
filter:email.modify
filter:email.send

are any of these filters the right way to get this done?

[Sebastián Cisneros]

I guess the right one is this one

filter:email.cancel

accodring to nodebb documents

const result = await Plugins.hooks.fire('filter:email.cancel', {
		cancel: false, // set to true in plugin to cancel sending email
		template: template,
		params: params,
	});

right?
