 * Even if the setting in Notifications is set to OFF, one still gets the notification
   of file upload.
    Bug?

 * I’d LOVE to be able to turn this off; I have hundreds of documents to upload 
   and hate the thought of my users getting an email for each one!

 * Hi.
    Thanks for using the plugin and sorry for the late response. I think this
   is related to the Buddypress notifications settings. There is a plugin (not sure
   which) where you can set when notifications are send per group/members

 * Hi,
 * I’m still having this issue, I’ve tried using the above code changes and nothing,
   and also tried using the “Group Email Subscription” plugin to stop everyone receiving
   emails by default… still nothing!
 * We’re hoping a lot of files will be uploaded to one of our groups in the coming
   weeks, and spamming everyone with an email every single time may mean they close
   their account (I know I would!)

 * As stated above, I am experiencing this as well…
 * “I’m still having this issue, I’ve tried using the above code changes and nothing,

 * Can we get this resolved?

 * Mike and Ryan,
 * What version of bp-group-documents are you using? It would seem like this was
   fixed in 1.7, but if it isn’t, this will affect me, too, and I’ll look into it.

 * Using 1.8 and this isn’t resolved. Is there a way to make this an optional setting,
   or a per-group setting?

 * I have been using Version 1.8. Still has not been resolved for me. Overall, great
   plugin.
 * However, the issue of sending a notification every single time someone uploads,
   edits or deletes a document is annoying my members and has made me continue my
   search for a different solution.
 * If this could be resolved to allow the notification settings to change or be 
   compatible with the plugin BuddyPress Group Email Subscription would be fantastic.
