Hi
Sorry if this problem has been posted before - I searched in the forum but didn't find anything about it.

I'm running on Joomla! 3.2 and I newly installed Kunena forum 3.0.3. I migrated users and messages from "Discussion" Forum.

My problem: If I post a new topic or message, every registered user is getting an e-mail message, although my configuration seems to say they should not (see attached image). None of the users has subscribed to a topic or message.

Can anybody help me?


Here's my configuration:

Check category subscriptions and topic subscriptions from the database.

Tables are:
#__kunena_user_categories
#__kunena_user_topics

Both of them has a field for subscriptions. If it's 1, user gets email... I'm suspecting that your users have category subscriptions on.

Thank you for your answer.

I checked both tables, but only moderators have a "1"-entry. One of the users who is complaining doesn't even have an entry at all in one of the tables. Could it be that, if subscription is not defined at all, it is interpreted as a "1"-entry?

When I first read this topic I thought to myself, how many times have people asked us "How can I force everyone to be notified (by email) of new messages on my forum?" and, whether you achieved this by accident or by design, there are probably hundreds of people who would be prepare to pay a lot of money to find out how you did it! :laugh:

But, as Matias suspects that the reason this is happening in your case is because of a couple of tables in the database, let me try to explain how these tables work and what the settings mean.

#__kunena_user_categories:

Column nameValue
user_idcorresponds to the Joomla user id
category_idthe Kunena forum category id
role1 if this user is assigned as a category moderator;
0 if this user is not assigned as a category moderator
allreadtimethe time when the user clicked "Mark all topics read"
otherwise NULL
subscribed1 if this user is subscribed to the category;
0 if the user is has unsubscribed themself from the category
params- not used by K 3.0

#__kunena_user_topics:

Column nameValue
user_idcorresponds to the Joomla user id
topic_idthe Kunena forum topic id
category_idthe Kunena forum category id in which the topic is located
poststhe number of messages posted by this user in the topic
last_post_idthe message id of the last message posted by this user in the topic
owner1 if this user created the topic;
0 if this user did not create (i.e. write the first message) in the topic
favorite1 if this user has made this topic a "favorite";
0 otherwise
subscribed1 if this user is subscribed to the topic;
0 if the user is not subscribed to the topic
params- not used by K 3.0

Does this help you understand better the table structure?

:pinch: After spending 45 minutes doing the background research about how the subscriptions work in Kunena (because I was basing my response on what marion and Matias had written) I went to the problem site and - it took a bit of guesswork to locate the forum - I see what's causing the problem.

All of what I wrote about how the subscriptions work has nothing to do with this particular problem. This particular issue is created by the configuration settings:

Configuration » Security » Security Settings » Email Moderators = All New Posts
Configuration » Security » Security Settings » Email Administrators = All New Posts

Well, guess what? All of your users are administrators. Please see the topic All users have Administrator privileges . There's your problem and there's your solution.
