Disable customer notification emails?

[Stas__99rabbits]

Hi!

I would like to disable some of the customer notification emails which are located at /admin/settings/notifications but I'm allowed only to edit them. Is there a way to turn off some of them completely?

Thanks!

Maybe there's a shopify policy I missed here?

There are no global settings to turn off specific notifications but you have the option to turn off some emails at the time of sending. (Shipping notifications, Refund notifications, etc.) The order notification email is the only one that can't be turned off.

...and how would you go about doing that? The shipping notification specifically. Right now we have shopify AND shipstation both sending emails when an order is shipped. We can't use the shopify one because it is sending people to the wrong place for tracking their order. I provided a screen shot showing what I mean. So since the shipstation email is directing people to the right place I would prefer to just turn the shopify one off. Thanks!

Was this ever figured out?  I'm wanting to disable the "Account Activiation Notification" and can't seem to find any documentation pointing me to a solution.

Does not seem to be present as an option anymore. Has it moved? Is it gone?

[David_Dripps]

Yeah. I'd like to turn off the Shipping confirmation email as well, but can't find the option in Settings > Checkout. How do we disable this email?

[Kevin_Tsuchida]

Yes, it looks like it was removed.  Can we receive confirmation?  I would still like this feature.

We would like to be able to combine the order confirmation & shipping confirmation into one email as these emails typically get issues within seconds of eachother and we'd prefer not to send our customers two emails.  Thus we'd like to be able to turn one of them off.
