BuddyPress Group Email Subscription
Admin Notification not working for Group Admins (5 posts)

    Multi Site Network Admins (whether a group member or not) can successfully send Admin Notifications (group>admin>email options) - It's a great way to email all group members.

    Group Admins, that are not Multi Site Network Admins, are not able to send a Group Email Notice with this plugin on my sites. Submitting the form results in a page refresh and no action is taken - no error is generated.

    The main function of this plugin, mail notifications of daily/weekly group activity, works for all group members. The problem seems limited to Admin Notifications (for non-Network Admins). I've replicated this problem on 2 WP installs. Can anyone confirm this problem? If not, wondering if this is an issue with the configuration of my server or if this is isolated to Multi Site WP installs.

    buddypress 1.2.8

    what version of WP are you using? the group notification system will one day be improved so that the group admin simply checks a check box in a new forum topic. then the email will go out to everyone and the message will be logged for future reference. wanna support this? lol!

    @dwenaus - using WP Multisite 3.1.1
    I'm really just trying to determine if the plugin is broken so I can stop trying to fix my WP install. Since I recreated the problem on a fresh install with no other plugins - I'm more confident the plugin is broken. No one had confirmed this specific problem until @pedroff (thanks!).

    No need for 'lol' regarding paid support but my use of buddypress is to support the nonprofit I work for. I use what works and understand the risk of limited support. I try to offer constructive feedback. My preference is to limit our use of plugins... unfortunately the added features that plugins offer are hard to resist :-)

    what would be great is if someone else with some php coding experience could take this one and make the change I suggest above. I'd really love that and the community would as well. Another way to help is to track down the actual bug in the code - that makes it much easier to fix.
