Answers.Text: Thanks -- interesting thing is if I go to the recurring contribution itself there's no edit link, only view or cancel. If I go to individual contributions in the series, the send receipt box is unchecked. I'll check the DB route and see what that looks like. Thanks for the info!

Answers.Text: It's possible that we add expose extra fields in the GUI (in the iATS Extension) - this field is definitively a native civicrm field from the recurring table though. You should find it!

Answers.Text: For a token-based recurring payment processor like stripe, the extension authors just need to add the getEditableRecurringScheduleFields method to their payment object and include is_email_receipt in the returned array.

  I'm on CiviCRM 5.8.1 on WordPress using the latest version of the Stripe extension, and I'm wondering if there's a way to disabled the automated receipts for existing recurring donations.
  
  We'd like to change to a model where we're doing thank yous manually as needed when recurring donations come in, and while we can tell it not to send a receipt when we first enter a donation, I don't see anywhere that I can tell it to stop sending automated receipts if it's already doing it.
  
  I do not have the "send receipt" box checked in the contribution page configuration for what that's worth.
  
  Thanks for any ideas folks have.

  In the Recurring Contribution series itself you can set Email Receipt to Off; if you have access to mysql you can stop sending CiviCRM Contribution receipts for all your existing Recurring series by setting is\_email\_receipt = 0 ( in civicrm\_contribution\_recur )
  
  For the iATS extension we have added an additional setting that will override (a global setting) all individual recurring series.
