Newsletter sent tonight

My excuses to all received a newsletter tonight with a worng subject. Newsletter was intended to ask for help in testing the new list features, not to promote iPhone cases…

When It’s Time To Left Newsletter Plugin

Many people ask me if Newsletter can manage X subscribers, with X from 1000 to 50000. I really have not an answer, it mostly depends on your hosting provider and its capabilities.

But just a two cent tip: if you have 50000 subscribers, do you really need a free plugin? I can understand that saving can be the first way to earning, but probably your are undervaluatring the value of a 50000 subscriber list… and may be it’s time to move to a professional service. Don’t you?

Newsletter 2.0.0 beta 2

This new beta available on download area, fix the good bye email (not delivered in previous versions) and tries to be more conservative with memory usage. When PHP go “out of memory”, it dies and in many cases silently, so it’s hard to understand what’s happened.

Newsletter and Memory Limits

Some user is reporting than the have a “no next run found”. It can be a memory limit. WordPress 2.9 uses almost 32 megabyte of ram so if your provider has set 32 mega for PHP you can go over that limits with while Newsletter is sending emails and all stops.

Try to increase the memory limit (some provider can stop that, thought) adding on wp-config.php a line like:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

Be sure to read this official page on memory limits.

Satollo.net Is Running Newsletter 2.0.0

I have tested Newsletter on two sites for 1 month, now it’s enough stable to try it on this blog. I know that recently subscription on this was was problematic, but know all is right (I hope…).

Newsletter Version 1.5.7

Fixed (I hope) the editors access.

Newsletter 2.0.0 Beta 1

For who wants to try it, I’ve just added the beta version of Newsletter 2.0.0 on download area. Version 2.0.0 has been widely rewritten to:

• simplify the admin interface
• add email archive
• add List-Unsubscribe header
• be more stable
• add translation capability to almost every panel of the free version

This version is a main step for version 2.0.0 of Newsletter Extras, which will provide:

• feed by mail (like feed burner but themed)
• followup
• better interface
• rewritten batch delivery system

Pay attention, update to version 2.0.0 cannot be rolled back. For Extras 1.x owners DO NOT UPDATE to that beta version, you’ll receive an email when all is ready to be used.

I’m Here Even If It Seems Not

My regular job is absorbing all my time. As many of you already know, I moderate all comments and I try to respond to anyone (via comment or direct email). So, be patient.

The time I’m saving not reading all comments is used to develop version 2 of  Newssletter.

Newsletter Version 1.5.4

Some people reporting that version 1.5.3 and may be 1.5.2 stop to work, or better the configuration panels do not show. I think is a problem of PHP configuration or version, so I made a new version with some modifications that may be the solution to that issue.

Try to update and hope…

Newsletter Version 1.5.2

This new version is only a maintenance release with some layout changes and a more complete internationalization code (for who wants to translate using a .pot file).
