## FAQ

  Why do I need this?

Maybe you don’t. But this is for people who don’t want emails sent on site updates.
It can get sort of unruly when you have a lot of sites. And because emails are annoying.

  I would like to edit what the update email contains. Can I do that?

Probably, but not with this plugin. This is _only_ intended to suppress the emails
sent, not modify them in any way.

Thanks for the excellent plugin 🙂 I have one minor request if you have time, and
that is for the settings page to be available network wide. At the moment, I have
to do the settings individually for every site which seems unnecessary.
