That’s great news, thanks for the speedy reply, We’re looking forward to giving it a try.

Cheers!

Do you have a rough idea when the content restriction on whole sections and Knowledge Bases will be available? If it’s some time off, I’ll look for an alternative.

Best wishes,

Yes, that’s perfect, no need to modify the plugin.

Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Thanks again,
I think I found a way to do what I needed, although it might not be entirely recommended, I thought I’d share it.

I couldn’t find any notifications plugins that could work with custom taxonomies. Some look at custom posts, but that would mean I’d send notifications for all new knowledgebase articles, that’s not what we wanted.

I added ‘category’ to the knowledgebase taxonomy array (in class-basepress-cpt.php). This lets me define a category for a knowledgebase post.

The notification plugins check for posts that match the category. It worked. As far as I can tell, it didn’t break anything. It’s probably brittle doing it this way because any update to BasePress will overwrite the change, I’ll have a look at adding something to the Word Press theme instead.

Great to hear you’re looking to add restrictions to sections and KBs too; this is actually something we are needing very soon!

Hi @codesavory, thanks for a quick response.
I meant “Post Category” like: Blog/News/Personal
https://www.wpbeginner.com/glossary/category/

Most subscription tools can specify a Category. So users can subscribe to: News.
But, I don’t think those are on the BasePress taxonomy.

I’m looking for a way to let users subscribe to a particular section of our KB.

Cheers,
