Newsletter subscription feature

[fredrikse]

Hi,

I have realized that I can increase activity by sending out a newsletter with the latest threads on a weekly basis. As of right now I send it out to all members who says OK to information from admin. Already I have seen some users, despite this option marked, that don't want the newsletter. I think I need some sort of unsubscribe like in the newsletter that the user can click. It should also be an option in the user profile where the user can choose wether to receive newsletter or not. I see that this could be linked to a specific usergroup that can be chosen in the "email user" section.

Does this already exist?

Looking for a newsletter addon as well. Someone mentioned there was one coming for mailchimp and aweber?

Mailchimp would be huge.

Mailchimp would be huge.

What do you mean? I know mailchimp is an Internet service.

I want a function where I can tell the system that all new members agree to get a newsletter. If then a user for some reason does not want it the user should be able to remove the option in the profile or by clicking a certain link in the newsletter.

Mailchimp integration I mean.

 

[Deepmartini]

aweber integration too!

Any coder interested in making such add-on? I'm willing to pay!

Any update on this feature request?

I have been planning to work on mailchimp integration, haven't yet got the time to start, finishing up existing addons for release, but I guess you should expect to see this addon in 3-4 months time.
