Highly recommended @DawPi if you need some custom work!

I think the only difference here is that you are allowing IPS to deal with the unsubscribe whereas I believe that @Jordan Invision is using Sendgrid's unsubscribe. So I think Mandrill COULD be just as intrusive but its a matter of how its setup.

No worries. I was just trying to make sure it was clear that is how it works and always how it worked so no one gets confused about it if they read the thread.
IIRC @breatheheavy modified their email templates to use the sendgrid unsubscribe instead of the IPS unsubscribe which is where I believe the core of their issue is coming from TBH. Sendgrid won't honor what the End User wants from IPS is the End User has specified they don't want email from the sender at all.

This is how the newsletter works currently. If you're having problems with it then there is something larger as far as an issue. Receiving bulk mail from the site is NOT under the same umbrella as receiving notification emails etc. THEY ARE separate.

Q1) How are they unsubscribing? Normally when they unsubscribe from the newsletter this doesn't stop other things. Most likely you are using Sendgrid's unsubscribe and you would likely have to discuss this with them or get some sort of mod to undo this miess.
Q2) If they aren't subscribed to your newsletter that block shows up (last I checked it doesn't show to guests at all).
What it sounds like is that they are subscribed to your newsletter but they have unsubscribed from receiving your emails through sendgrid and so sendgrid isn't sending anything. You should be using the default IPS subscribe/unsubscribe stuff, not sendgrid's which is likely your downfall here.

Oh! You're not talking about a block then. You're talking about the index page for the Gallery. I didn't realize that. You will need to submit a ticket as that does sound like a bug.

I must apologize for being short-worded with my answers. I fear in my attempt to be short and direct, I have left the wrong impression. 
 
 I understood that is how it works now, and that is how it has worked. My initial comment was for @breatheheavy as I was confused and puzzled on how he had managed to unite the e-mail in such a fashion. SendGrid (https://sendgrid.com) as I understood it was a mailing service, and I was puzzled how that server was somehow undermining the internal e-mail system. I admit to ignorance (not knowing better in this instance on how that can happen).  
 
I made my reply before I knew you had replied. 
 
Once you read my comment, I appreciate you took the time to clarify that the two (newsletters -vs.- general e-mails) should operate independently. While I already knew this, I was appreciative that you took the time to address me anyways (thanks). I quickly said that it was good to know in my short-sightedness and that I am looking forward to 4.6. Which I am looking forward to since it will support PHP 8. But there was no way for you to know why I am waiting for 4.6, and my pleasantry comment, with my effort to be short-worded, seems to have given the wrong impression.  
 
I apologize for my miscommunication.
 

This is how it works NOW. Its always been how it worked. When you sign up for the newsletter/admin communication you are signing up to allow for "bulk mail" that the admin sends. It does not in any way affect the notifications etc.

I figure this topic needed some love. I know this isn't all new and exciting stuff but always good to see bugs fixed.

Don't edit the existing one - world of pain at later points, potentially.
Instead, use this:

.ipsReact_button { filter: grayscale(0%) brightness(100%); } It will make it look normal. The problem is that the default is meant for the heart and doesn't work well on the yellow emojis.

The number of reactions doesn't always do that. I have about 13 reactions and they are basically intended for people to voice their opinions. I've had others but I've kept the ones that work.
I made the default reaction something that isn't really a reaction so that people actually took advantage of the other reactions. This is the "I read this" reaction that the point is that its not positive, negative or even really feedback which is how I use my reactions. However, none of my reactions provide negative reputation and the only "negative" one provides no reputation at all.

Going left to right:
Like Agree Disagree Yeah Love Thanks You're welcome Great Idea Cheers LOL Preach it Cringe I read this On mobile this sort of sucks in some areas more than others but I've made it work. That said I'd say that some are lesser used (like Great idea and Disagree) but I wouldn't remove them because they all have their place within my community to be helpful. (Great idea is really useful in my Brainstorming and Ideas section for example and Disagree is useful for my conversations sections).
Would I like a little more modular use of it it? Maybe. I sometimes think it would be good to remove disagree from sections that it doesn't quite fit like Brainstorming and ideas or looking for help sections. Agree should probably really only in the same sections as Disagree because "great idea" and "thanks" would probably be better served in the Brainstorming section. The problem for that for me is that Great idea can be used in other sections and still be useful (status messages and conversation threads).
 
Reviewing my list, if I felt like there was no other way (which obviously there is) I could maybe remove 6-7 reactions but I wouldn't feel good about it. Having a more modular or a better display would, I think, could be beneficial. @Jordan Invision

That would be nice. I mean, as it stands, it works but I can't tell you how many times I mouse over that icon to choose a reaction and then have to do it again because my mouse moved just above the line as I went to the left (or right). Its worse on the more mini versions like in Status Updates because the area is about half of what it is on a post.
I think it will also make things better for end users to be able to access ones that are further away faster. On mobile it would reduce on the need to scroll as well as thumb reach.
In a way I feel penalized because I want to give my members the ability to express themselves.

This is normally a server log.

Yes safe to delete. Your server will recreate it.

Change it to this:
.cMultiQuote { display: none !important; }  

Change it to this:
.cMultiQuote { display: none !important; }
