How to disable digests temporarily

by nwh10 » Mon Feb 26, 2024 12:55 am

We are migrating our phpBB forum to a new domain on a new server. We are presently working on a test migration on the new server. The board is still active and operating on the old server. How can I disable the emailing of digests on the new server until we're ready to go live? I've looked through the setting in ACP/Extensions, and I don't see an obvious control.
Thank you --

Any extension can be disabled in the ACP, Customize tab, Manage extensions. Click on the disable link.

If moving to a new server you will need to reprogram any cron jobs. Email settings may need to be updated too.

Well, duh, that was easy! Thank you Mark! I definitely overlooked that setting.
We've worked on the email settings. Thanks for the heads up on the cron jobs.
