SendToUsers module allows you to be able to send certain content-types to certain roles (you can choose to select all member of the role or to show split users of those roles).
The usage is very simple:
1.- Install the module normally and enable it.
2.- Go to /admin/settings/sendtousers
Here you can edit the link text that allowed users will see.
Also the roles that will receive the email with the node content ("Send to all" allows you to automatically send to all users of the selected roles. If not, before sending you will have to choose to what users of those roles you want to send the node to).
Finally you can also choose what content-types will have this kind of "simple moderation" or "internal recomendation".
3.- Select the permissions.
Only roles with the permission "see sendtousers link" will be able to see the links.
TODO LIST:
- A text-area with token replacement options to select what content send to the final user (now only sends the node body)
- Configurable settings per content-type. Now you can't specify 1 role for one content-type and a different one for other content.type.
WHY SEND TO USERS
I don't know if is any that users would appreciate but is something we needed in one of our projects and the customer liked it. If users suggest some kind of improvements or patches or fixes I will update the project. Also if new features are added by customer needings, the module will be updated.
