How can I change Askbot so it sends Feedback emails to superusers but not staff?
The title says it all. Django has a superuser and staff role, in contrib.auth.models.User.
In my other app (running on the same db), I have some staff member because I need them to access a certain admin page, but I don't want them to receive Askbot's feedback emails :)

I've found out how. Feedback emails are emailed to "moderators", in askbot/mail/__init__.py.
Moderators are those with status == 'm' in in contrib.auth.models.User (ah, so this is how Askbot monkey patches User :-)).
I just needed to change that to 'a' (approved) and the problem went away.

What is the difference between admins and staff? Not sure.

siovene ( 2012-10-31 13:47:40 -0500 )editRight now moderators (User.status = 'm' as you found) and administrators receive feedback by design. We did not make distinction between staff and the admin in askbot.
