Setting Up WordPress New Post Email To Sendy List

The New Post Notification feature email feature (a.k.a Post2Email, RSS-to-Email) on MailOptin trigger the sending of automated email newsletters within your email marketing service provider when you publish a new post in WordPress.

This tutorial will teach us how to set up New Post Notification to Sendy email list. Doing so will go a long way in eliminating any manual process needed to send newsletters to your email subscribers.

For every new post you publish, MailOptin will automatically send the new post as a newsletter to your Sendy list subscribers on your behalf (via Sendy API).

To get started:

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

Click “Email Automations“> Create New.

Enter your “Automation Title” and “Select Automation Type” > “New Post Notification” > Select Template.

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

After selecting your template, you will be taken to the email customizer page 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 any problem, you will need to click the “Campaign/Automation Settings” and select “Sendy” as your connection. Then, select a specific email list to which the new post newsletters will be sent.

It is also possible to send the newsletters immediately after publishing your post by checking “Send immediately” or scheduling it to be sent minutes, hours or days after publication.

So that you know, you can create as many automation to be sent to different email lists based on the categories and tags the post belongs to.

Set up is now complete.
