   Trying to set up auto-subscribe user groups for particular authors. Specifically, when a Contributor changes a post status from Draft to Pending Review, the user group with that Contributor's editor is auto-subscribed. Using the auto-subscribe mini framework, but this isn't working (no notification send to user group when post changed from Draft to Pending Review):

   if ( 'pending' == $new_status && '306' == $post->post_author ) {
   		$usergroup_ids_to_follow = array(
   				21,
   			);

   What's the correct conditional statement?

   When you say "this isn't working", do you mean:

   • The usergroup isn't subscribed at all
   • The user group becomes subscribed, but the email notification isn't sent

   Also, can you confirm you have the follow_post_usergroups() call after you declare your values?

   $edit_flow->notifications->follow_post_usergroups( $post->ID, $usergroup_ids_to_follow, true );

   In either regard, can you add the following above your conditional check?

   var_dump( 'Status: ' . $new_status );
   var_dump( 'Author: ' . $post->post_author );
   die();

   This will give you some values we can check against the conditional
