EasyMail 2.0.2 and some issues

Pubblicato mercoledì 15 giugno 2011 in Alo EasyMail Newsletter

Here you are a new version to fix some bugs. I hope it could solve some reported issues.
You can download it on wp.org.

The changelog:

  • a new option to load only plugin javascrit files on creation list of recipients thickbox, useful to prevent conflict with javascript of other plugins: go to Newsletters → Settings → tab General
  • fixed some minor bugs reported me in forum in last days

But, we have some issues yet, that I hope to fix soon:

  • somebody reported me that the progress of newsletter sometimes remains stuck at 0%: for now you can read the faq, I hope it can help you;
  • in newsletter edit screen, when you select also registered users as recipients, the total of recipients could be not correct and that could affect creation of recipient list.

I’m going to work on these issues in next weeks. Sure, you can support me.

EasyMail v.2 is out!

Pubblicato domenica 29 maggio 2011 in Alo EasyMail Newsletter

The v.2 of EasyMail Newsletter plugin for WordPress is out!
As usual you can download from wp.org.

Quickly, the new features:

  • now newsletter is a custom post type, using the standard WordPress GUI and API
  • no more need to hack WordPress core files or php/cron timeouts
  • no more multiple or missing sendings to recipients
  • now you can send to a huge number or recipients: it uses a ajax long polling engine to create recipient list
  • some action and filter hooks useful for developer

To keep the plugin always update please support me donating via PayPal.


Before upgrading from v.1 to v.2, note that:

  • About subscribers and mailing lists: in v.2 the delimiter used in database changed. If in Newletters → Subscribers screen you cannot see the link between subscribers and lists, the automatic update didn’t work. So you can make it manually using this query in your database:
    UPDATE wp_easymail_subscribers SET lists = REPLACE( lists, '_', '|');
  • About templates, now plugin uses standard post table. So you cannot see your templates anymore, but they are always stored in database, in wp_easymail_sendings table (table now not used): sorry but you have to recover them manually. Old stats are not visible anymore, but they are stored in wp_easymail_trackings (table now not used).

If you are upgrading from v.1.x, be sure to make a backup of plugin database tables. After installation remember to activate again the plugin.
The version 2 uses 3 tables: wp_easymail_recipients, wp_easymail_subscribers, wp_easymail_stats.
If you are upgrading from v.1.x, there are 2 tables not more used: wp_easymail_sendings, wp_easymail_trackings.
