First though I spent the morning coming up with email notification systems for myself. The ideal thing would be to set up an RSS reader to generate emails but for some reason that's not an idea that has caught any traction circa 2011. I'm kinda shocked myself, that seems like a great feature that should be standard in all feed readers.



Anyway, I seem to have a hacked together system for doing this for me, except it seems to have trouble with the forum RSS feed. I guess after this post I'll find out if it will go thru or not. I will have to try to update the feed document I reckon.



Then there is the problem of the "pending review" posts which don't have an RSS feed. The Wordpress version the site uses is pretty ancient, but I like the theme because it matches the site, and there's no way to get it back after an update. Unless I learn about security vulnerabilities I intend to try to get by without ever updating it. So anyway, I just hacked in a little check that runs whenever an admin page is accessed (like by an author writing a post) which checks for any pending review posts and sends me a mail if its been 2 days since the last mail.
