I am setting up Ameila booking plugin on my website and want to set a custom notification with a welcome note when people sign up for a specific service.
I have enabled the notification and it is to be action triggered when a specific service is approved. They also need to get their appointment approved email with a zoom link for the date and time.
When I send a test email for this custom notification it does not go through. The standard notifications in test mode do go through with no issues.
I've also tried booking the services and the standard appointment approved notification does go through but again the custom one doesn't. Mail settings is WP Mail
Please provide me a temporary WP-admin (administrator) user for your site where this happens, so we could log in and take a look ‘from the inside’ as that’s the most efficient way to see and resolve the issue.
We do not interfere with any data or anything else except for the plugin (in case that’s a production version of the site), and of course, we do not provide login data to third parties.
You can write credentials here just check PRIVATE Reply so nobody can see them except us.
I can see that you are using a "WP Mail" as a mail service.
We strongly recommend changing mail service setting to SMTP. See below how to configure SMTP mail services.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) – In this article, we show how to configure the SMTP mail service for Gmail, but you can set it up for any other outgoing service that supports SMTP for a mail client. When you select this option, four inputs will appear – you need to populate them to configure SMTP properly. A Google SMTP example:
SMTP Host – smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Port – 587
SMTP Secure – TLS
SMTP Username – Your Gmail address
SMTP Password – Your App password (details about setting up an app password can be found in the yellow notice section below)
The most commonly used SMTP Ports are 465 and 587. Port 465 uses “SSL” as SMTP Secure, while port 587 uses “TLS” as SMTP Secure. Make sure to check what the correct SMTP settings are for your mailing provider.
Google SMTP (Gmail accounts):
From 30 May 2022, Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password, so “Allow less secure apps” will be removed.
In order to continue using SMTP with Gmail, you will need to set up an App Password for Amelia. App Passwords can only be used with accounts that have 2-Step Verification turned on. Instructions about this can be found on Google’s Documentation, here.
For detailed set-up instructions, please take a look at this article on our official support platform.
Microsoft SMTP (outlook, hotmail, live, and office365 email accounts):
If you’re having issues using SMTP with your Microsoft account, please make sure to set up an App Password for Amelia. App Passwords can only be used with accounts that have 2-Step Verification turned on in the Security Basics section of your Microsoft account. Instructions about this can be found on Microsoft’s Documentation, here.

Hi,
No still not firing - tried with "Send only this notification" enabled and disabled.
Appointment approved notification is still going through - just not the custom welcome note either in test email or by booking through the calendar.
