No emails for new listings

General
1

Hey,

I’m setting up the Search Alerts extension and I’m not receiving an email when a new listing is submitted that matches the specified criteria. Email sending in general is working (I have YaySMTP set up with Sendinblue/Brevo and successfully received the test email). The template under HivePress → Emails is also properly set up (for the event “Listings Found”).

Is there anything else I need to do?

Check if your WP Cron is working properly, this plugin is a great tool for that: WP Crontrol – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org

Thanks for the quick response! That sounds very likely; I always get notifications that “some past-due actions were encountered” (or something along those lines). I will check the plugin and see if I can fix it with that!

Turns out my WP Cron wasn’t working because I currently have HTTP BasicAuth implemented. I used the WP Cron HTTP Auth plugin to fix that. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
