My messaging system is working, including an email notification of a moodle message, but whenever a post is made to a forum now, no email notifications are sent. This was working until about a week ago. I don't think any changes have been made. Running 2.2.4. The cron job is running.
Yes, I got exact the same problem. Email configuration works, when I send an message to user, they receive an email message.
Recently, when I made a post in forum (user already subscribed) system didn't send email message to user to notify them there is a post in forum.
This work before, nothing change.
Could someone show me how to find out what could the problem be?
Hello,
I have a similar problem. The news forum stopped sending email notifications to the students a few days ago though it continues sending an email to the administrator any time a new post is added.
I can't be exactly sure but I think it happend after upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
P. H.
For the benefit of others:
I have managed to sort out the problem, which was due to a strange change in role permissions after upgrade.
We have defined a "member" role (based on the "student" role), but strangely after upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3 there were changes in several of the permissions in this role, including "allow forced subscribe", as a result of which the members had been unsubscribed from the course news forum.
