Buro Castra – Disable Notifications

Description

Disable Notifications lets you turn off specific WordPress email notifications without touching code. Notifications are grouped by platform in tabs, making it easy to find and disable exactly what you don’t need.

Currently supported notifications:

WordPress

  • Password reset – disables the admin notification when a user resets their password
  • Plugin auto updated – disables the email sent after automatic plugin updates

WooCommerce

  • Password reset – disables the admin notification when a user resets their password

General

Under the General tab you can set a fixed sender/bounce e-mail address (envelope-from) for all outgoing transactional e-mail. This overrides the server’s default fallback address, which is useful when sending mail from a domain that differs from the server’s own domain. This could be needed for dedicated hosting services from companies such as Rootnet and Hostnet.

Missing a notification?

Can’t find the notification you want to disable? Request it via our website and we’ll look into adding it.

Extensible by design

Developers can add their own domains (tabs) and notifications via filters:

  • bc_disable_notifications_domains – register additional domain tabs
  • bc_disable_notifications_wordpress_notifications – add notifications to the WordPress tab

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress
  3. Go to Settings > Disable Notifications and configure which notifications to suppress

FAQ

Does this affect emails sent to users?

No. The included notifications target admin emails only (e.g. the password reset notification sent to the site administrator).

The notification I want to disable is not listed. What can I do?

You can request it via our website. If you’re a developer, you can also add it yourself using the bc_disable_notifications_domains filter.
