Hi I use v3.1 v4 on a charity site.

We do not yet get many posts and I and other mods would like to know
if the facility exists in this or a later version to e-mail notification of any new
posts to admins/mods with the option to send the entire post.
If so - HOW do I set it up?

Anybody help??

Cheers

P

There is improved subscription functionality in the next version (3.3). It still doesn't send the whole post, but could be changed to do so....

Thanks Dave

The facility to have notification of a new post in a stipulated forum/s
would be especially useful where the room is private to, say mods. Many mods have other
things to be doing and so could keep a handle on things via e-mail.

A switch for each room in Admin asking fo e-mail notification with the choice of sending the whole text posted would be just the job. Better is a different e-mail address could be specified for each room. When is 3.3 due out?

Also is there going to be a facility to approve posts before they are made public?

Well I designed the subscription mod being implemented in v3.3. The reason I didn't do something like this is that would not work well when there are multiple mods and admins. Plus some moderators wouldn't want notification all the time.

There is a beta release out now, so the full version shouldn't be that far away.

Yes, also in the next version....
