Hello Support,
I want to setup emails to be sent when a question or answer is newly posted on our DWQA plugin, how do you setup those options from the settings for V.1.4.3.4?
I’ve checked online for the answer and haven’t found anything to help, there isn’t a place verified I can find that will show how to configure the email portion.
Please advise [I’ve attached a screenshot of the area I tried] *We have the plugin WP-Mail-SMTP installed*

I’ve deactivated the WP Mail SMTP since the GMAIL SMTP plugin shows it’s connected and works much better once setup via Google API with TLS

All,
I have figured out the actual answer/fix for my issue!
Here is what I did to resolve such:
1. Downloaded Gmail SMTP plugin [Follow the basic instructions in activated plugin in WP Dashboard for setup information for Google API]:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/gmail-smtp/

2. Created a new gmail account and setup everything to match my domain
3. Setup WordPress with the gmail settings for SMTP in Dashboard and used the following format below in picture links to configure the email settings:

I did my emails in a list like:
[email protected]
[email protected]
etc
etc
This should work for this setup since there is no CC or BCC settings in email. Tested and all is now working as expected!
