Hi,

You should be able to get it working with ApplicationEventHandler and the "Published" event from the contentService. This is working code in a v7 website we have:

public class DateFolderEvents : ApplicationEventHandler
{    
  protected override void ApplicationStarted(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
  {
     Umbraco.Core.Services.ContentService.Published += ContentService_Published;
     base.ApplicationStarted(umbracoApplication, applicationContext);
  }
  private void ContentService_Published(Core.Publishing.IPublishingStrategy sender, Core.Events.PublishEventArgs<Core.Models.IContent> e)
  {
    foreach (var content in e.PublishedEntities)
    {
       PublishDoc(content);
    }
  }

  private void PublishDoc(IContent sender)
  {
     var user = new User(sender.CreatorId);
     // do your stuff
  }
}
