Module versions
The versions 1 and 2 have the same functionalities except that the Daily Digest frequency emails are different from the two versions. To move from 1 to 2 you just have to require version 2 and go update the settings form and save since there are new fields with this version.
- 1.x The Daily Digest emails are sent separately at the night for the same user.
- 2.x This version put together all the user Daily Digest emails and send them in a summarized single email
For more info about the new things on version 2 see the release notes
Note: The idea is to have all the other functionalities same so after more discussions and user interest we decide either to continue with version 2 or merge version 1 to 2.
