WP Status Notifier

Description:

WP Status Notifier will sent a notification to given email address(es) of posts pending review by contributors. It can also optionally notify the contributors when their post is accepted or rejected. WP Status Notifier is very useful for moderation in blogs with multiple contributors.

The plugin will add an options page in the Wordpress administration area where you can set one or more email addresses to notified of posts pending review.

Features:

  1. No need to manually check for posts waiting for approval.
  2. Includes a link in the email to edit and/or approve the post in the notification email.
  3. Optionally notifies contributors of the moderation status.
  4. The plugin requires no database access and adds almost zero overhead.
  5. Simple configuration options. Doesn’t require editing any .php files.

Installation:

  1. Upload `status-notifier.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. To configure the plugin go to Options>Status Notifications in the Wordpress administration area

    I can’t get this to work. I installed it, activated it, and even configured the options. But no emails are triggered. I checked my spam folder as well so that is not where they’re going either.

    Pending review notifications will be only send when a post is ‘pending review’ (posts directly published will not generate any notifications).

    Approval or declined emails will not be sent if you used the same account to post and then approve.

    I figured it out. I think it was something with my mail settings but found a work-around using the wordpress@domain.com email as default. It’s working fine now. Great plugin!

    I installed this on 2.5, but I don’t think it works with the new dashboard. The screenshot looks like my earlier version of WordPress. What am I missing Thanks!
