[EP-tech] Getting Editorial Alerts to work

Hi Ravi,

I think these require cron jobs to send out emails daily, weekly or 
monthly.? Add something like the following to the eprints user's crontab:

15 2 * * * <EPRINTS_PATH>/bin/send_alerts <ARCHIVE_NAME> daily
30 2 * * 0 <EPRINTS_PATH>/bin/send_alerts <ARCHIVE_NAME> weekly
45 2 1 * * <EPRINTS_PATH>/bin/send_alerts <ARCHIVE_NAME> monthly

Substituting <EPRINTS_PATH> and <ARCHIVE_NAME> as appropriate.

Editors will only get notifications if they have set up their Editorial 
Alerts in their profile to be "Once per Day", "Once per Week" or "Once 
per Month".? The default is Never.

Regards

David Newman

I don't get any emails no matter what combination of settings I use (eg, 'All of these' or 'Any of these' next to Subjects). What might be the problem?
