 * Question regarding custom post types:
    I have a custom type for Recipes and I
   see it in the list of notifications. If I add notifications specifically for 
   the custom post types, do they just override the regular post notifications or
   are they required to get notifications for that custom type? If I do not add 
   a notification for the custom type, will I still get a notification because I
   have the regular new post notifications configured?

 * Hi [@ehemmer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ehemmer/),
    Thanks for your
   message.
 * Only the notifications that you set-up will send out. The New Post Published 
   notification is for the ‘Post’ post type. If you wish to send out notifications
   for your Recipes post type then you’ll need to create a notification for that
   too. Essentially, you need to create notifications for each post type you wish
   to send emails for.
 * Hope this makes sense and helps.
