Hi,

In openequella we have users, groups and roles under user management. I generally rely on roles for user segregation.

Coming to the exact issue : "moderation emails are not getting triggered on workflow moderation", I did some reaearch to solve the issue and on checking codebase for the solution and I encountered, workflow moderation emails are sent only for users and groups mapped to that particular workflow moderation step and don't know why but for some reason roles are not included.

There are two solutions to solve this :

1. Modify code in such a way that roles are also taken into consideration while triggering emails on workflow moderation.

2.Create a group with same members as role and map this group as moderators in workflow editor under moderators tab.

I prefer second solution.

Hope this helps and I'm closing the issue.

Thankyou.
