SilverStripe

A simple module that decorates the Forum module and sends an email to a single email address.  This will allow moderators to see updates immediately and deal with any issues such as spam or otherwise unsuitable material and moderate it.

After install simply add the folowing to your site configuration

 global $forum_moderator_email_address
 $forum_moderator_email_address = 'moderator_alias@yourcompany.com'

Provided that email is configured correctly, the above address should receive details of any new posting.

I've marked this as Alpha until Silverstripe users other than myself have tested it.  As such be cautious if using a production site.  Note that no database changes are made by this module.  I have also not tested this with versions of silverstripe other than 2.3.4 but given that the dependency is on the Forums module and not Silverstripe itself, it should work with other versions.
