Description

Hello, This is a great module. I was wondering if there is a way to send an email to the author of the parent node when a child node is created. Maybe a token like: [node:parent-author-mail]. I see that tokens provides for parent author ID, and username but I think an email parent author token would be really useful. If there is already a way to do this please let me know.

Thanks

OK, I figured it out. duh, hahahahah. Using workflow-ng & token I was able to load a user (author of parent node). Then send email to parent node author. Great stuff!!! I love it.

Can you please document your findings here? I am using Drupal 6.13 and Node Relativity 3.0 with Rules (Predecessor to workflow-ng) I still cant find the token for parent-author-email (sp?) I would like to send an alert to the parent author each time a child node is created...

Thanks!
