Send notification based on which Category my custom post is published under?

    Hello,

    I need a little help. I have a calendar plug-in (Which uses the custom post labelling), events are published under certain categories based on their relevance.

    Instead of sending a notification for all ‘New events Published’, is it possible to send a notification based on which Category contains a new event?

    For example, If I have an event which is under the category ‘A’, I would like to only send a notification to members under the user role of ‘A’. That’s my intention, is this possible at all? I’ve got the user roles setup, just want to know whether it is possible within the plug-in?

    Many thanks,
    Jon.

    Hi @lbbjon,
    Thanks for your message.

    Yes, this is possible using the Conditional Notifications add-on.

    Thanks,

    I have tried purchasing your add-ons from https://betternotificationsforwp.com/. On the first attempt, the payment portal timed out (504 error), the next attempt I got received an error saying I could not purchase the add-ons because I was not logged in.

    Please can you help! I have not received any confirmation email, so not sure what is going on.

    Many thanks,
    Jon.

    Hi @lbbjon,
    Ah, I replied to your message yesterday via the site which is probably why you didn’t receive anything. I can confirm messages are being sent correctly from the site so are you able to check your spam folder or contact your IT department for help as I think the messages are being blocked at your end for some reason.

    Thanks for the reply, I see, I didn’t receive any reply via the site yesterday. I’ve checked spam/junk, but no luck.

    I will check with IT. What’s the domain/email address? So I can find out whether emails are being blocked/filtered, as well as potentially whitelist the address.

    Many thanks,
    Jon.

    Thanks Jon,
    Domain name is betternotificationsforwp.com but the emails comes from that domain via SendGrid.

    Hope this helps.
