Hi,
I am using ez publish 4.4.0 with ezwebin. Are the notifications on approval workflow supposed to work in 4.4.0? I have created a simple workflow to approve news, but I cannot make the collaboration notifications work.

I have seen this bug:
http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=17338&activeItem=2
but the patch (kernel/classes/ezcollaborationitemhandler.php) does not seem to solve the problem.
Thanks,
Mathieu

Hi Mathieu,

Have you tested the same behaviour on the latest version (master codebase in github) ? The applied patch might rely on others, applied after the 4.4 release.

Let us know,
Cheers,

Hi,

I confirm that the kernel/classes/ezcollaborationitemhandler.php patch solves the problem. The author and the moderator must subscribe to the "Approbation" collaboration notification. I though I was the case but it seems that I was doing something wrong...

2 additional questions:

- how to let users subscribe to the "Collaboration notifications" in the ezwebin interface? By default, it seems that this is not the case and I have to log in to the admin interface. Another misconfiguration from my part?

- I notice that approval notifications mails are sent in bcc. Is this the expected behaviour?

Thanks,

Mathieu
