Digest not sent

Description

Hi,

I setup a digest which is supposed to email all nodes of two different content type from the past 24 hours. I then modified a few of my nodes to have a creation date/time within the 24 hour time gap. Even though the site claims that a digest was sent, nothing came to any of the subscribers.

Do these nodes need to be node types marked as newsletters in simplenews? If so, would I need to somehow mark the specific nodes for inclusion?

Did I miss a step? or is the dev version not ready for use.

Thanks,
Ano1

Mine aren't sending either.

It's now Aug 15th. I installed the module on Aug 7th. At the top of admin/settings/simplenews/digest_settings it says

Nodes created before: Aug 7, 2009 11:59:59 pm have been sent.

Newer nodes created between Aug 8, 2009 12:00:00 am and Aug 7, 2009 11:59:59 pm will be sent out on a cron run per the settings below.

Which seems a bit wrong... Why would it be still talking about Aug 8th??

ooo I just changed the weekly settings to it sends on saturday instead of sunday, and the message above changed to be something much more sensible. I manually triggered a cron run, a newsletter was created in the 'sent' part of simplenews, but I never received any email.

After a second cron run, I got an email. :D

I am having the same problem and am confused about how this is supposed to work.

1. I installed simplenews digest.
2. I went into simplenews digest and defined what nodes should be sent as digest and when (daily after 1:00am)
3. I created a page node that fit the digest requirements.
4. At 1:02am, a Simplenews issue node was created (default send status is "send now"), that consists of the title of the page node. However, this "digest" wasn't sent automatically.
5. It appears that the only way to send it is to save it manually. I was under the impression that simplenews digest would send it automatically.

Could someone please tell me what am I missing? Thanks!
