Hi Bardia,
Thanks for your message.
When you say “new post type” do you mean “New Post Published”?
What exactly isn’t working for you?
Let me know.
Thanks,

Custom post type called cars.
“‘Cars’ Update” notification working, but not “New ‘Car'”.
Understand? =)
Hi Bardia,
Thanks but what’s not working?
Is the notification editor broken? Is the notification not being sent? Is it being sent but not being formatted correctly?
Please elaborate and provide as much detail as possible. I should then be able to help.
Thanks,
Jack

Hi Jack!
Is the notification editor broken?
No, looks fine.
Is the notification not being sent?
Yes, not beeing sent (also double checked this with the email logging plugin)
I troubleshooted a while before posting, but not sure what other details you need.
The only modification make in the Twenty sixteen theme was adding the custom post type via functions.php in order to be able to test this notification with this theme.
Hi Bardia,
Ok, thanks for clarifying.
Does the ‘New Post Notification’ work for regular Posts?
Thanks,

Hi Jack!

Nope. (But “Post Updated” works here too…)

Done that.
Did actually try on a fresh install.
Seems like ‘editor'(the_content) have to contain data to fire. So got “wp default post” type working by this.
My CPT is still not firing…
Can you see anything (extracted from register_post_type) below that should be different for my CPT to work?
‘public’ => true,
‘publicly_queryable’ => false,
‘exclude_from_search’ => false,
‘show_ui’ => true,
‘query_var’ => true,
‘capability_type’ => ‘post’,
Hi Bardia,
Thanks for investigating further.
1. I’ll look into that.
2. That sounds right. Most of the time, when front end forms are used, they’re not inserted using post status transitions and so BNFW can’t them up.

Can you also give an example of a Norwegian title so that I can test it from my end?

When using acf_form (acf plugin) to post (create post) from front end the “new cpt” notifiation will not fire.

I believe the suggestions for slight code changes that I’ve suggested at the end of this thread will solve that problem.
