Notifications with ACF Plugin

    I’ve used this great plugin along side the ACF plugin on a couple sites to notify admins of new posts submitted via a front-end form, these posts have always been created as drafts and then published by the site admin from the dashboard.

    This time though, I can’t get the plugin to send a notification if the front-end form is set to publish the post straight away. Works fine if posted as a draft and then published laster from the dashboard.

    Any ideas? Thanks!

    Hi @leanda,
    Thanks for your message.

    That’s correct – there is no notification for ‘Publish to Publish’ posts / pages as they can cause conflicts with other plugins that immediately publish posts. If possible, continue using draft to publish as this will ensure that BNFW continues to work correctly.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,
    Jack

    Thanks for the reply. That’s a shame, I’ll use wp_mail instead. I was hoping to use your plugin because it’s a really nice way to allow non technical clients to edit the messages.

    Thanks

    Not a problem. If I find a way to make it work in the future, I’ll include it.

    Thanks,
    Jack
