Disable this notification for users

Hello all,

My publishing system (ojs 2.4.8.2) is sending notification emails to every article posted on the site.
How can I disable this notification for users?

Hi @rensousa,

What is the action triggering this email? Alternately, what is the text of the email?

Hi @asmecher,

I believe that the action that sends the email is the publication of a new edition of a magazine published on the site.

The message sent to users is:

You have a new notification for XXXXX:

A new edition has been published.

Link: http://xxxxxxx.org.br/index.php/xxxx/issue/current

Thank you for your help

Regards

Hi @rensousa,

Is that translated content? I don’t see the phrase “A new edition has been published” anywhere in the software.

Hi @asmecher,

Yes, the content has been translated. The original language of the publication is Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR).
The original message follows below:

"Você possui uma nova notificação de <name_of_the_journal>:

Uma nova edição foi publicada.

Link: http://<url_of_the_journal>/index.php/<name_of_the_journal>/issue/current "

Hi @rensousa,

Ah, that notification goes out when a new issue is published. In the latest OJS 3.x, we’ve added a checkbox so that the editor can choose whether to send it or not. In OJS 2.x I believe it would take a brief code modification.

Hi @asmecher,

Thank you very much for your help!

Due to my lack of skills in programming, will invest efforts in platform migration to version 3.x.
