The site admin will not get an email after publishing their own work. That is on purpose. It is a good fit if more than one person writes on the site. For example a blog, a company website, a school, or a news site. #### Key features * Emails the site admin when someone publishes a post * Optional hold-for-approval: a writer’s post stays as a draft until the site admin publishes it. The site admin gets an email. After it goes live, the writer gets an email too * Skip emails for certain people (for example Editors). The site admin is always skipped * Works with blog posts, pages, and other content the site admin turns on * Custom email subject and message, with short codes such as `{post_title}` that fill in real details * Sender name and sender email are set automatically (the website name, and `site@ yourwebsite.com`) * Settings, Tutorial, and Support in the left menu For step-by-step setup, open **TW Post Approval Notifier Tutorial** after the plugin is activated. #### Who is this for? * Websites with more than one writer * Business sites where a manager checks content before it goes live * Schools or teams where several people add posts * Anyone who wants a simple heads-up when new content appears ### Privacy / External Service This plugin can optionally connect to an external support service operated by Technology Wisdom. **Service:** [https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com](https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com) **Terms of Use:** [https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/terms-of-use/](https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/terms-of-use/) **Privacy Policy:** [https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/privacy-policy/](https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/privacy-policy/) The service is used to provide in-plugin support messaging, feedback forwarding, and announcements. **Opt-in consent (required before any connection):** When you activate the plugin, an admin notice asks whether you want to allow the support connection.

That address is shown under **Settings General** in WordPress. ### Who does the email come from? The sender name is the website name. The sender email is set automatically to `site@` plus the website address (for example, `site@example.com`). These do not need to be entered in Settings. ### Does the site admin get emails about their own posts? No. Posts published by a site admin never send an email. That cannot be turned on. ### Is a Technology Wisdom support connection required? No. That is optional. Email alerts work either way. ### Where is the full setup guide? Open **TW Post Approval Notifier Tutorial** in the left menu. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “TechnologyWisdom Post Approval Notifier” is open source software.
