As a blog administrator, you have to know what your authors and contributors are working on. Sure you can ask them, but it can become a boring task quickly if you have many different contributors.
The solution to the stated problem is a plugin called Draft Notification. When someone creates a new draft on your blog, you'll automatically receive an email.
Of course, the first thing to do is to get the plugin. You can download it from the following URL: http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/draft-notification-plugin-for-wordpress/.
Once you have downloaded the file, rename the
.txt
extension to.php
and install it according to the standard installation procedure, as described in Chapter 4.That's all! Now, every time a new draft will be saved you'll receive an email notification. Please note that the creation of this plugin is such that it also sends out an email when an existing draft has been modified and saved again.
