    Is there any way to subscribe all subscribers to all categories in Subscribe2?

    All subscribers are subscribed to all categories unless you Exclude Categories in the Settings > Subscribe2 configuration page.

    Hi Mercime, thanks, but I mean after the fact. i.e. once they've already been excluded from some categories.

    hello Christiaan, just un-check categories which were previously excluded and click SUBMIT button and your subscribers will get the posts from said categories from the time you do that. But, if you mean to send older posts in categories that were previously excluded to your subscribers, then sorry, that's beyond my ken :-) Perhaps someone else can help you ...

    Hi Mercime, what I mean to do is subscribe people to categories that didn't exist when they first subscribed.

    Also, I'd like to change them all to HTML.

    @Christiaan,

    You can subscribe them all to new categories or old excluded categories in the Bulk Management section of Tools->Subscribe2.

    The only ways to change them all to HTML are to individually edit the settings for each users (access from the same page above) or directly amend the database fields.

    Thanks Matty, I guess I'll have to amend the database fields directly because most of my email subscribers are subscribers only (i.e. they're not registered users) and there doesn't seem to be a GUI for editing their options?

    By the way, which tables do I edit? I couldn't seem to find the right one.

    @Christiaan,

    I've made some changes to the code - if you grab version 4.18 you can now achieve what you are after in the GUI. :-)
