$admin = get_bloginfo(’admin_email’);
$poster = get_the_author_email();

mail($admin, $subject, $message);
mail($poster, $subject, $message);

but i end up with both emails going to the admin - do you see the problem?

I want use your plugin for my blog but I don’t get the recipient bis the function

$recipient = get_the_author_email();

I checked it to input the recipient into the message, but this part is empty. I don’t get the author email.

I hope, you can help me.

Thanks a lot

In case anyone else wants to be notified upon “Pending Review” instead of Draft (with the introduction of Pending Review in 2.3), it’s easy to do. Just change the line that says:

if ($result->post_status == “draft”)

to

if ($result->post_status == “pending”)

and it seems to work great.
