Selectively modifying email notifications for followed sites

  • Unknown's avatar

    How can one selectively stop or modify email notification settings for one followed site, without affecting the other followed sites.

    The Following Blogs support page says:

    Go to My Sites → Notifications → Reader Subscriptions to change your default email delivery methods for all the blogs you follow.

    However, any action taken on the Reader Subscriptions Notifications page (My Sites > Notifications > Reader Subscriptions) will affect all followed sites. The “Use the Reader” phrase in the note on the Reader Subscriptions page which says,

    Use the Reader to adjust delivery settings for your existing subscriptions.

    is linked to the Manage Followed Sites page. The only option I find on Manage Followed Sites is to follow or unfollow. I find no options with regard to email notifications settings on the Manage Followed Sites page.

    So, unless I’m missing something, it appears that if I wish to stop email notifications from a single site that I follow while remaining a follower of the site, I must choose “Never send email” (at Default Email Delivery) or “Block emails,” at My Sites > Notifications > Reader Subscriptions, effectively stopping emails from all sites that I follow instead of just one site.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi @musicdoc1 – Go to https://wordpress.com/following/edit and click the right facing arrow which appears at the left of the site name. That will open a menu where you can adjust delivery settings for a single site.
