How to Trigger Emails to Site Admin

You might want to notify site admin about various things that are happening on the site. You can use the Add Email tool or "System Events" to trigger emails depending on when you would like to send an event.

Let's say, you would like to send emails to site admin every time someone makes a comment on an article:
1. Go to Application Manager, open Articles application, right click on it and select "Add New Email".
2. Select "Send email when someone comments on user entry" from Email Trigger option and set the "To Address" to "Site Admin". Complete other details as you wish.
3. Save Email and Publish.

Another possible scenario is that you can trigger events depending on various other things that are not available on "Email Trigger" dropdown. Let's say, when someone signs into your member area, you would like to send an email to Site Admin:
1. Go to Application Manager, open Articles application, right click on it and select "Add New Email".
2. Select "Don't send this email I'll set an event for it" from Email Trigger option and set the "To Address" to "Site Admin". Complete other details as you wish. Save Email.
3. Click on the Application Manager main menu and select "System Events".
4. Add an event so that when a user signs in, the email will be triggered:
When user logins, with no condition, send logging-in email.
5. Save Event and Publish.
