Hi,

I want my users to create in the backend their events, but I want to authorise them before they go online. I've set everything and it sort of works. The problem is: I - being the Super User for Jevents and all the categories - don't get notifications that there are new events waiting for my authorisation. I have to open the backend and check all the unpublished events manually.

So my question is: do I need extra plugin (New & Changed Event Notifications) to receive these notifications? My website doesn't have any problem sending mails. Even creators of events receive them the moment I authorise their events. It is only me not getting these bloody notifications. Oh, and other components don't have problems sending me their notifications to my superadmin email neiher.

If it may be a misconfiguration issue, let me know where to check.

Cheers,

Olek

No problem!! I actually tried to learn a bit of Polish with Duolingo but I only got as far as Ja pije mleko / Ja pije bode :(

We do not provide notifications for events created in the backend. I will check with geraint to see if it would be possible to allow notification for events created from the backend. I think it makes lots of sense.

In the meanwhile I have hacked a bit your JEvents installation and you would need to reapply this change on each JEvents Core update. Just edit the file: administrator/components/com_jevents/libraries/saveIcalEvent.php and around line 250 replace:


if (!$dryrun && $success && $notifyAdmin && !JFactory::getApplication()->isAdmin()) {


with this:


if (!$dryrun && $success && $notifyAdmin) {


Dzień Dobry!!!

Can you please install back the English language? After JAB 17 in Krakow my Polish vocabulary was extended to "Dzień Dobry" but that's all :S

Holy cow! You've made it! I've indeed got a notification of a new event. Byt the way - before I ask the supprt for help, I always first try really hard and check all the options and read all the documentation and forum threads I can find. And I don't think I've read anywhere the notifications work only in the frontend, that's why I thought I've messed something completely.

Thank you VERY VERY MUCH. Of course I'll be modifying the file on and on for as long as needed.

Wielkie dzięki! :)
