Continuing the discussion from Published/Scheduled Posts 'Watching First Post' notifications not being triggered:
Enabling the disable category edit notifications
setting prevents ‘Watching/Watching First Post’ notifications from being created when a topic is manually re-categorized.
This is very useful when cleaning up old topics and prevents the avalanche of emails that was common before this setting was implemented.
However, after a recent change in beta8, having that setting enabled now means that publishing (re-categorizing) a topic with a timer will not trigger any notifications to people who are watching that category.
It would be good to separate those two behaviors when the disable category/tag edit notifications
setting is enabled:
- changing category/tag manually doesn’t trigger notifications
- changing category/tag with a timer does trigger notifications
