Email notifications unreliable, even with server Cron

As others have reported in the threads below, email notifications are unreliable and @ mentions do not send notifications at all.

I added the server side Cron and disabled WP-cron like this article states and it worked for a few days, but emails suddenly has stopped working as of last night. Nothing is logged in FluentSMTP. Doing a test email via FluentSMTP works and arrives without issue.

Can support help advise?

Note: Shared Hosting accounts have cron jobs limits so it is always good to check what are those limits if there are any

Example:

  • X min intervals - like minimum value to run every >15 miutes,

  • X concurrent Cron Jobs - like 2 Jobs run at a time,

  • Max execution run time Cron Job - if a cron job takes 30 secons to complete your PHP might be the fault, not a Cron Job etc).

    If you won't follow those limits your cron job might be blocked or limited just to prevent burning your shared hosting resources.

VPS Cron Jobs limits are probably related only to the server capabilities.

Let's wait for the Ninjas Team hints and troubleshooting.

What about the option to sent everyone a notification when a new post is posted in a space does this one work? Also I want to sent the members of certain spaces a email weekly about a live meeting they can find the link to the meeting inside the space. Could be a workaround for the notification issues is to use Fluent CRM? And is there a way to embed the automatic sign in option from Fluent Community inside Fluent CRM? Maybe there is a hook or filter available to use this in Fluent CRM.
