I’m running an educational site. Students submit essays and the pages appear similar to blog posts. The student and I can write comments on these pages.
The Issue:
Students receive notifications when I write comments on their essays. (Good)
I do not receive notifications when I write comments on their essays. (Bad)
I’ve checked that notifications are turned on in “discussion” in the general settings.
I have also tried every variation imaginable with the settings in WP Mail SMTP Lite to no avail. (Encryption off / SSL / TLS – Authentication on / off etc.)
Test mails go through no problem.
I contacted the company that hosts my site but they have not been able to resolve the issue. Any tips would be appreciated.
On a side note, why isn’t this a simple thing that’s built into WP? It seems so straight forward and simple on the surface yet I can’t make it work without additional plugins etc.
