Additional settings for emails:
To allow customers to decide if they want to receive WPLoyalty emails, we have a setting called "Show email opt-in section -> Visible/Hidden."
You can find this setting in the WordPress backend by going to WPLoyalty -> Settings -> Customer Reward page, enable or disable the toggle, and save the changes.
When this setting is enabled, customers will see a checkbox/option on the Customer Reward page. If the customer checks the "Opt-in for receiving points & rewards emails" box in the Notification Preferences section, they will receive the email. If they do not check the box, they will not receive the email.
This way, customers can decide whether or not to receive WPLoyalty emails, giving them more control over their preferences.
Additionally, as an admin or store owner, you can choose to enable or disable emails for customers from the WPLoyalty -> Customers tab. You can enable/ disable the toggle "Email Opt-in"
