HTML Newsletter Generator - Keep Members Coming Back [Paid] [Deleted]

I have a question regarding the send method. Does this use XenForo's email user method? If so, does it send them out in batches or does it send them all at once?
 
The sending method is up to you. This generates the html. You can use the built in xenforo system or any other 3rd party system that allows html email sending.

Alright, answered my question. Would be great to see a modification for the XenForo email system to send out in batches, then I'd get this. But seeing how it doesn't, this would not work for me. Thanks.
 
It sends them out at once, but 60 at a time, which minimizes resources. We send out over 11000 to members.

You can also use Sendy which costs money. The system we used when we had VB used cron to send them out. That way, you could schedule them.

Well according to @Brogan, he said that there is no options that have emails sent out in batches at a time and would require an add-on or custom development to change the behaviour in this thread.

Unless I'm not reading something correct?

When the email program runs, it sends them all, but it moves only 60 at each time, so that it sends 60, 120, 180, etc....until all 11,000 have been sent.

The Xenforo email is great. You just have to wait while they all get sent. Sendy is faster, but it costs per mailing, and $50 to register.

My suggestion:
Can you make the /xfnewsletter area in ACP so that only admin can view it? I don't think any members should view it as it's just a preview place for admins when they format they letters.

Did this get implemented? Was looking for the permission today. Very important for including threads with premium content in them.
 
I have purchased this resource and it looks exciting!

There was no readme file in the zip, so am a bit lost as to how to get this to work with Mailchimp. Can someone please direct me to some instructions on how to achieve this?
 
Simply go to /xfnewsletter to see the html code and preview. Configure options in the appropriate area.
 
Ok, we have bought two licenses for this product. I see the URL from which we copy the finished HTML code from to send out but where do we tell the plugin when we want it to generate code? I'm expecting to see a "hit this button to generate the newsletter" button somewhere.

Yes, but how do I get that to Mailchimp? I was led to believe that this process no longer needed to be copy and pasted manually.

Is there any documentation for this add-in?
 
I've seen two references to no readme file in the latest releases - can this be answered and supplied here or something?

As it is, I have no idea about avatar.php except some brief references in some posts here, nor a proper listing of templates to customize.

Help a guy out!

:)

Cheers,

Regs.
