Thanks for your reply Dirk. A couple more questions to clarify all this:
: >gl_userprefs / emailstories is set to = 1 for any new user that signs up : That field isn't used in Geeklog ... (assuming emailstoriesperdefault = 1) Ok, so when a user goes into preferences and TURNS OFF email notification on all topics where is this setting stored? And if the admin adds new topics in the future, will the user get them? : >gl_userindex / etids is always blank for any new user : This is the field that's used for sending the Daily Digest. If it's : empty, it means that the user is subscribed to all topics. Ahhhh. So this means that no matter when a user joined the site, and the ETIDS is blank, any new topics that are added to the site later will still send emails out to the user (if emailstories... is =1) : The default for new users is set in config.php: : // New users get stories emailed to them per default (= 1) or not (= 0) : $_CONF['emailstoriesperdefault'] = 0;
