Answered Tiered manager user roles with email notification

Ah. The editedby field is empty if a new resource is created, but never edited.

Try this:

$editor = $resource->get('editedby');
if (empty($editor)) {
    $editor = $resource->get('createdby');
}

or you could just go with createdby to begin with:

$editor = $resource->get('createdby');

Thanks Bob - Saving works, no hanging, nothing in error logs... but no email sent... Something in the hook preventing the email from being sent for some reason... if I remove the hook snippet code then it will send a mail... odd...? Any ideas?

UPDATE... does work actually... darn typo when setting the $editor var in the snippet! I will have a play and let you know how it all works...

I started playing around with the Stagecoach extra a while ago, and it seems pretty interesting. http://bobsguides.com/stagecoach-tutorial.html

Maybe Bob can be coaxed into adding features

The only short coming of this implementation comes when an editor edits a live resource... when they save, the amends go directly live... the Publisher does receive an email notifying them of the update - but the editor's changes go live upon saving the resource... is there a way to prevent this? The implementation works perfect for NEW resources - but not updating existing ones...
