Turn off Email Summary

The plugin sends a periodic summary email of your backups (successes/failures). The default is weekly.

Turn it off in the UI

SL Migrations → Settings → General:

  • Email Summary: choose Off
  • Or change the level to Errors Only (only sends when something fails)

Save → the cron event is unscheduled.

The levels

Setting Behavior
All Sends every event (every build)
Errors Only Only sends when a build fails
Summary 1 periodic summary email (default)
Off Sends nothing

Recommended: Errors Only if you want to track failures without being spammed.

Custom recipient

By default it sends to the site's admin_email (see Settings → General). Change it in:

Settings → Email Summary → Recipient - enter a different email.
