Hello, @HeadStand, I hope you're doing well. Something bizarre happened to my IPS install, and the Newsletters app got completely uninstalled, so I'm having to redo everything from scratch. :( I'm going back through the manual now, and looking at the settings, and I just realized I'm not sure what a "cycle" is. If I have X Emails per Cycle, but X+n members signed up to get a specific newsletter every 24 hours, does that mean that it won't send out an email to all X+n members? Or, does the system send an "email" to multiple recipients, so that if, e.g., it sent one email to 5 members, and is set to send 150 emails per cycle, it could send 750 total messages (150*5=750)? I'm using the built-in SMTP to distribute the Newsletter. Thanks!

Thanks!

Just installed the new 1.2.6 version. Is there a changelog somewhere?

@HeadStandInstalled the new update today. Thanks!

I thought so, but sometimes I don't trust my brain to do brian things. :P

Congratulations! I hope future updates are less stressful for you. That didn't seem to be any fun at all. Is the open rate data new this release? Or did I just not realize that was available before?

Yeah. I was referring to the ACP Marketplace. :)

Keep in mind version numbers aren't base 10 decimals. It's entirely possible we could see 4.6.206 if they keep issuing bugfix releases at the current rate. :P @HeadStand, something odd might be going on in the backend. I just logged into the Marketplace through my Admin dashboard, and using the search function there doesn't turn up Newsletters at all.

Congratulations on the release!

Hello! I hope you're doing well. I've noticed an issue with the above, as well. I've had at least two members not receive their Newsletters until they toggle on the in-System admin mail. I know this app is not officially 4.6 compatible yet, but has anyone tested to see if it still works?

Good afternoon! Just to confirm, this plugin breaks under 4.6?

@HeadStand, Hello! I hope you're having a great 2021 so far. 🙂 Is there a way to force a specific newsletter to rebuild the subscriber list? I have an issue with at least one member who cannot receive the newsletter they're signed up for. They toggled it on in their Settings --> Account Settings --> Newsletters, but I don't see their name in the admin interface when I ask it to show me the list of subscribers. Since this is happening with one member, I'm concerned it might have happened to others as well, hence why I was wondering if there was a way to rebuild things. Thanks!

Thanks! In my personal notification settings (not part of the Newsletters admin), I do see an option to be notified by email, but not for the pre-distribution copy. I’m not finding the notification settings in the Newsletters admin. I’ll go check the manual to figure out where it is. Unfortunately, I fear all my other brain cells except the apparently useless two I’ve been rubbing together may be lost forever.

@HeadStand, Good afternoon! Hope you are having a safe and relaxing holiday season. 🙂 Our forum admin group got a “Pre-Distribution” version of our daily newsletter this morning. It’s essentially identical to what I might get if I clicked the Preview button. Is this a new feature? I don’t recall it happening before. I also can’t figure out how to turn it off. Is there a toggle somewhere?

Perfect. Thanks! (Default is 10 per user per day, btw.)
