Setup WordPress New Post Notification To ConvertKit Subscribers

The New Post Notification email automation feature is an essential tool for email list builders. This tutorial will teach you how to set up new post notifications or email alerts for your ConvertKit subscribers.

MailOptin will automatically send the new post newsletter to your ConvertKit email subscribers on your behalf for every new post you publish.

To get started:

Ensure you’ve connected MailOptin with your ConvertKit account. If you haven’t done that, go ahead and do it before returning to this tutorial.

Click “Emails” > Add New >> Email Automation.

Enter a title and select as automation type, New Post Notification.

Here’s how to use your own custom email template.

After selecting your template, you will be taken to the email customizer where you can configure the automation settings, template page, template header, template content and even send a test email to your email address.

For this process to work without issues, you need to open the “Settings” panel and select ConvertKit as your connection.

You can decide to send the newsletters immediately after post by checking “Send immediately” or schedule it to be sent minutes, hours or days after publication.

Just so you know, you can create as much automation as possible based on the author, categories and tags the post belongs to.

Set up is now complete.

Every time MailOptin send a new post newsletter to your list, you will see the record in ConvertKit as Broadcasts.

Don’t forget you can also send a daily, weekly and monthly email digest of your WordPress articles.
