E-Mail New Posts Help

Hi @sjgold,

I’m going to answer your questions one by one as follows 🙂

How can I set it so that my uncategorized messages do not get sent out without altering the PHP files sp they don’t get nuked on every update.

To do this, you can use a filter. We have it on this page for you to grab – look for the “jetpack_subscriptions_exclude_these_categories: Exclude certain categories from ever emailing to subscribers.” section.

I’d suggest using also a plugin like Code Snippets for adding such buts of code: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/code-snippets/

A friend of mine uses jetpack and his posts have the tags and categories listed while mine does not. I do not understand why. Can anyone help here?

Could you post your site URL here, so I can have a look?
 

Hi @sjgold

You should be able to set those to display via the Customizer in Appearance > Customize > Content Options, as shown:

This may be theme dependent though, so if you don’t see those options you’d need to contact your theme author or try an alternative theme.

Hi there

Sorry for the confusion. If your theme doesn’t have built in support for Jetpack’s content options, then you’ll need to add support for it, by adding the first code snippet from that page:
https://jetpack.com/support/content-options/

You can add this code using a code snippets plugin as described here:
https://jetpack.com/support/adding-code-snippets/

Hope that helps!

Do you see the content options in the customizer?

Have you tested it with another theme to make sure it’s not caused by a conflict with the theme you’re using?
