Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_pending_notify: Pending article notification
Hi Mary
Thank you so much for this plugin. It’s just we wanted at our site, but I’ve run into a slight problem which maybe you can help with. As publisher I receive the notifications like I’m supposed to but none of the writers are receiving notification after I publish their articles, or so they tell me and I have no reason to believe they are messing with my head.
If you have any suggestions as to what I can do about this I’d be most grateful
cheers

First things to check: are their defined email addresses correct? did they check their email spam folders in case they were flagged as spam?

Yeah I’ve checked all the obvious stuff, I was actually kind of hoping either one was the case – but no all that was cool. I think it may turn out to be an internal problem not something with the plugin, because none of them have been receiving emails when they change their passwords, but when we had comments activated they were receiving comments no problem.
Jakob provided a potential fix for the latter problem – not getting notified of password changes – that involved a change that being made in development stages but not generally available yet. But since nobody else on this forum has run into that problem I don’t know if that’s the solution. His fix allows people to change their own email addresses which is cool, but I honestly don’t see how it will solve my problem.
cheers

Thanks very much, have installed and as soon as one of my lazy buggers who call themselves writers get around to posting anything I’ll let you know if it solved our problem.

Hello,
since my upgrade to 4.07 this plugin stopped working. Has anyone a solution?
Update
I was a little bit to fast, three emails got lost, but it was not the fault of the plugin, I think.
It´s working in 4.0.7!

Hello,
How would I edit the plug-in to not inform the authors when their articles go live? (I’d rather tell them in a personal email.)
Thanks!

You can take advantage of one of the plugin’s limitations: when you change the article status to live via the article list screen’s multi-edit functionality, rather than editing the individual article directly, author notifications are not sent.

Thanks Mary, good tip.
I was thinking it would be easy just to comment out or delete some lines in the plug in, if only I knew which ones would do the job without messing up the rest of it?

Sure. Look for:
$GLOBALS['upm_pending_notify'] = 'author';
And comment it out.
And I’ll see about making author notification an option you can turn on and off. :)
