I’m having the same issue. We use a gravity form to let users submit a custom post type called “widgets”. The custom post type was created with the PODS wordpress plugin.
I have “widgets” selected in the post types, but myself and my users aren’t getting notified of new posts :(.
I really appreciate the plugin, but it’s kind of useless without auto notifications.
I’d be willing to pay for a pro edition if you can get this figured out.
Thanks!
