CUNY Academic Commons

Gina, could you please share details? Please give links to the blog posts in question, and share screenshots or some other information that indicates how they were "sent to group". I ask because I don't see at https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/bmcc-open-pedagogy-seminar/ any indication that there were activity items created for new blog posts, which means that email notifications would not have gone out. It's also possible that what you saw were "edited" notifications rather than "new post" notifications, which could indicate a different sort of interface issue, but it's hard to know without details.

Thanks for the additional details.

It appears that there was a problem with the way 'Send to group' worked in the context of asynchronous email notification sending; in order for it to be compatible, we need to save the 'Send to group' setting in a persistent way. This change was fairly straightforward in the case of the Classic editor, but was deeply complicated in the case of the Block editor.

I've deployed this as a hotfix to production and have verified that it appears to be working.
