Frequently asked questions
What is the “Plain-Text Fallback” for?
Some email clients (especially on older devices or for high-security settings) cannot or will not display HTML emails. The plain-text fallback is a non-HTML version of your email that will be shown to those users. This dramatically improves your email’s deliverability and user experience.
How do I format my CSV file?
Your CSV file should be as simple as possible. The plugin only reads the first column of each row. Make sure the very first column of each row is a valid email address. Any other data in other columns will be ignored.
Where are my templates, logs, and queue stored?
Your templates and completed logs are stored safely in your WordPress database, in the wp_options table. The active email queue and jobs are stored in a dedicated custom database table (wp_edubzl_email_queue) for performance and scalability. The test mode log file (when test mode is enabled) is stored in your uploads directory at wp-content/uploads/edu-bulk-emailer/test-email-log.txt. You can view this log from the admin menu: Edu Bulk Emailer → Test Email Log. If you choose to, you can enable an option in the plugin’s “Settings” panel to have all this data (templates, logs, the queue table…
Can I use this for a massive list of 50,000 emails?
Yes! This plugin is now designed specifically for large lists. It uses a queue and batch processing to break your large list into small chunks (e.g., 50 emails every 5 minutes). This method respects server sending limits, prevents timeouts, and is the recommended way to handle bulk sending from WordPress.
How does the queue work?
When you click “Add to Queue”, your emails are not sent immediately. They are added to a custom database table with a “pending” status. A background task (WP-Cron) then runs every few minutes (based on your settings), takes a small batch from the queue, sends them, and updates their status. This repeats until the entire job is complete. You can watch this progress on the “Active Jobs” table.
