Custom Post Type and Custom Taxonomies are both possible and via the settings you can even switch of using the default categories. Read chapter 6, 7 and 8 of STC’s User Manual

Yes I’ve been through that and think I have a grasp. However I want to hide the categories from displaying on the form when using the shortcode [stc-subscribe]. Even if I set the styling, your JS adds css when switching between update subscriber and add subscriber modes.
Even that is possible:
1. Categories on/off enabled: set checked
2. Taxonomy Name: set unchecked.
But you must have at least one (or more) custom taxonomies available.

Ok that seemed to work. However a few more questions/ problems:
1. Is there a way to not need people to click a link in the email notification to confirm their subscription? Same for unsubscribe. or
2. Is there a way when they do click on the link that the page they go to on the website is not blank? Shouldn’t it say something?
3. When a new post for the subscribed CPT is published, why aren’t the subscribed users (with STC Status: publish) receiving a notification (‘Using Block/Gutenberg editor’ is set to on in the settings)?
4. ‘Enable resend post’ option is set to on in the settings however ‘Mail this blog again’ is not checkable in the post
1. If users are logged in one way or the other no conformation is required. If not it is required.
2. For now this is what it is.
3. My guess is that the new post taxonomies and the subscribers taxonomies do not match
4. You can only click on mail this blog again if it is send for the first time iaw if the status is sent you can

1. ok
2. ok but why is the page they go to blank? How do I fix that please?
3. The ‘Custom Post Type Name:’ in settings is set to Journal. When I add a new Journal post, no email is being received by the subscriber. How do we fix that please?
4. As I said ‘Mail this blog again’ is unclickable in the post. I don’t know how to send a notification to the subscriber.
For 2. It should not go to blank. Look at the link it should also be shown as the link to the website and should read exactly as the link clicked on in the email.

For 3: I do not have x-ray eyes I still beleive the subscribers have different taxonomies then the new post.
For 4: again the first post is send automatically and only thereafter you can click on ti

Great product actually and Sidney’s support and responsiveness is simply astonishing. The plugin is written to focus on taxonomies which isn’t the direction our customer wants to go. So this plugin isn’t aligned with what’s needed. Thanks Sidney!
