Email Users





Are you using Email-Users? If so, please consider making a donation!

Email Users is a plugin I have used for a number of years on the MacDolphins web site.  After contributing a number of patches to the plugin, in late May of 2012 I was invited to be a plugin contributor which I accepted.  Being a plugin contributor allows me to commit changes to the Email Users plugin Subversion repository and release updates.

I have been responsible (both good and bad) for changes and enhancements in the 4.x releases.  The changes are documented in the Change Log but in summary, here are the key new features:

  • New menus which are compliant with the WordPress 3.x menu API
  • Re-architected Options model which is compliant with the new Options API.
  • New Users Settings page which allow bulk control over user settings for notifications and mass email.
  • Additional control over the default settings for all users.

You can download Email Users from the WordPress Plugin Repository or install it from the WordPress Dashboard.  I try to monitor the Support Forum and address any issues people encounter with the plugin.

  2. Hi Mike,

    I wondered if it was possible to have a discussion with you regarding the email. Within the WordPress Plugin Directory I tried to go to the plugin homepage for documentation but, unfortunately the site it linked to was down.

    I wish to also ask whether you are able to modify the plugin slightly?

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    I am looking to do an “ask chad” section on my blog. I just want to capture emails, first and last name and their question. Would you recommend WordPress google forms? I know you made it , but from a layman’s perspective, Is it pretty easy to set up?

    Thanks
    Chad

      If you use Google Docs then setting up WordPress Google Forms is pretty simple. That said, it sounds like all you’re looking for is a simple contact form. There are a number of plugins that provide that functionality. If you want to have all of the questions and emails addresses in a spreadsheet automatically, then my plugin is a good solution.

      Creating a Google Form is pretty simple, Google’s interface is very easy to use and the form you create has a complementary spreadsheet where the results are stored.

      My suggestion would be to try it and see if you like the results. You should be able to set up what you’re proposing in 30 minutes or less.
