Resend Digest button rescinded?

    Why was the resend digest button removed? I was very confused at not being able to find it in the updated tabbed interface. I see that the FAQ includes a description of all the hoops one must now jump through* to accomplish this previously simple task, but no explanation of why it has become a PITA, nor does the changelog ??

    * Although it does not least the name of the cron job

    Hmm, it seems the cron job got removed somehow. After changing the frequency setting the button reappeared. I took some screenshots of the interface (and crontrol) before doing so, if you are interested.

    @belg4mit,

    The resend button will only show if a resend is possible – i.e. there are previous dates available in the database to enable the posts included in the last digest to be collect again.

    I think it has re-appeared for you as you have applied a digest setting again and then adjusted it.

    I didn’t change any of the process when the interface was updated, I just split the different sections of the old and length page into tabs – I’m sorry you don’t like it.

    Hi, I think you misunderstand. The pseudo-tabbed settings interface is fine. I’m a long time user of the plugin and suddenly this week’s digest was not delivered. I was willing to chalk that up to a mail fluke, and went to use the resend button. It was not there, and I attributed this to the recent settings page redesign (I’ve not needed the feature in some time), particularly given the section about resending in the FAQ.

    The FAQ section should probably be removed, and it might be better to always show the resend button, but to give it a disabled attribute if it is not applicable.

    @belg4mit,

    I understand now – the resend question in the FAQs does need an update.
