Hi all,

Our community has a surge of invite-only users all at once (roughly 400 of them) every few months. We make a new topic called “Introduce yourself to the Community” where all 400 people can say a few words.

In order to combat spam, we turn off all emails while this particular thread is live, but it’s not ideal because legitimate topics are posted and do not surface in the users’ inboxes.

Is there a way to disable all notifications for this one topic? (or disable all notifications for posts on this one topic)

I’ve installed discourse on digital ocean and am happy to do anything within the console. I had a look through the code but didn’t find anything relevant.
