Blogging question

[Michael David Wall]

Hello everyone,

 

I have a question regarding the blogging aspect of Wordpress.  The University where I work at has been doing a set of student blogs via Wordpress for a couple of years now.  I just started a few months ago and since I started, Wordpress 3.0 has come out.

 

This school year, we upgraded to 3.0 and we're having an issue that we did not have last year.  Three of us use an administrator account, the official admin account.  We have a staff member who uses an administrator account and then 9 students who all have contributor accounts.  We installed the User Role Editor plugin to give each of the students the upload_files capability so they could upload pics and such to their posts.  The staff member with the administrator account is set up as an editor on each of the students' blogs.

 

The way it worked in the past is that the students would submit their blogs which would go into pending review and an e-mail would be sent to the staff member who would then approve and publish their blog post.  However, since we switched to 3.0, she no longer receives these e-mails and I can't really figure out why.  I have posted on the Wordpress official forums a day or two ago and haven't received a response.  I figured I would come here and ask you all and see if you could help me out.

 

Thanks in advance to anyone that does!
