Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Josiah Wallingford Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 How can I find out more about built in newsletter information. I understand bulk mail but I am seeing a System Widget called Newsletter Signup. If I move that block onto my page it says it needs configuration. Where do I configure this and how does it work? I was considering one of the newsletter applications on the marketplace but if there is a built in newsletter system I would like to see what it is capable of before investing into one of these applications.
RetroSynth Posted April 19, 2018 Posted April 19, 2018 I agree fully and documentation is lacking. Did you figure this out?

The only configuration is the text it shows and you change it by clicking “Edit”. There is nothing more to it. The widget does nothing more than what the “news and information” checkbox on this page does: https://invisioncommunity.com/notifications/options/ If you have that checked, you also will not see the widget. It goes away once the user is subscribed. Sending the newsletters happens through the bulk mail feature in the ACP. The widget is just meant to encourage people to sign up.

opentype Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Well, don’t tell me. Make it a feature request in the Feedback forum.
