This works fine with WordPress 3.1. If you are facing problems, do let me know.

Hi, trying out with version 3.00 and previous one:

- Pending Reviews Notifications are sent out to admin’s email;

- On approval, email is sent only to admin’s email, notification to contributor doesn’t work;

- if admin changes status, no notification is sent out.

Any suggestions?

Hey. I wanted this plugin to send me an email everytime someone edited a post. So if the post is published but someone decided to change I’d get a review of it. Though I want the post, that was edited, to stay posted on the front page but I also want to receive an email (like I would receive for reviewing it the first time).

Spoke too soon, I was able to reproduce it and the fix suggested by Keith works. Thanks

@Keith: I can’t reproduce the problem here. I am running Wordpress 2.8.4. Maybe it was a Wordpress bug introduced in one of the 2.8 releases and is now fixed?

I fixed my problem by switching to use the php mail() function instead of smtp.

I have installed and configured this to send emails to 2 users. I then submitted a post for review via my contributor userid. Neither user recieved an email. I did change my wordpress email settings to send emails from news@semva.com instead of the default. I also added a mailbox to my server for wordpress@semva.com, but still no emails where sent.

Plug in works great, but I have encountered a problem. My SMTP plug-in send all notifications through a gmail account. If I add one email address to your plug-in, it works perfect. If I add another, i get a kickback in the gmail account.

May or may not be a plug-in issue, more curious if you have ever encountered this or anything like it.

Thanks.

FYI, this plugin needs updating for WP 2.8. Ever since upgrading, it will email anytime a pending post is changed and saved, not just the first time it’s saved.

This change seems to do the trick:

< if ($new_status == ‘pending’) {
—
> if ($new_status == ‘pending’ && $old_status != ‘pending’) {

I have two different WP installs (2.6.1) on the same domain, one regular and one on a subdomain.

This plugin works fine on the regular install, but on the subdomain one it doesn’t work. I have an SMTP plugin that successfully sends emails from it, but for some reason I am not getting these notifications…

Any suggestions?

As per Jason’s request. I need more than one person to be alerted for comment’s. WP has a field for one email only. Comma separation doesn’t work, although it did in older versions.

Hi there. I would like to thank you for a great plugin. There is one thing I can’t get it to do.

Is it supposed to send an email with the post’s content and a link to approve the post without having to log into the admin area? Because if it does, I can’t get it to work. I am using WP 2.7.1.

All I get in the email is the author’s name, the title and a review it link.

I use Comment Changes Status and it allows me to click on the approve link in the email and the comment is approved without me having to log into WP. I was hoping that your plugin would do the same thing but for Posts.

Please help as I would love to use this plugin.

Hi there. Thanks for a great plugin. Just what I was looking for. There is one issue I can’t resolve.

I am setting up my blog and I have a user called Dummy1 to help me test things. When Dummy1 submits a post for review, I get the email OK but there is no link to click on to approve the post without having to log into my admin account.

From what I understand in reading the plugin description, the plugin will show me the contents of the post and provide me with a link in the email to approve the post without having to log into my admin account (this is what the plugin ‘Change Comment Status’ does for me when dealing with comments). Is my interpretation correct? If so, why isn’t it working for me? Please give me some ideas as to how to fix it.

Thank you very much.

@Jason: I believe Wordpress already does that.
