About Easy Newsletter Builder

From the official readme Β· v1.0.20

Description

Easy Newsletter Builder, by UORealms, helps site owners create attractive newsletters with a guided builder, rich editors, image controls, live preview, and finished newsletter code.

The Lite version gives you a simple newsletter workspace with issue details, a hero/masthead area, featured update, latest updates, custom sections, final call to action, footer content, optional section controls, and preview tools.

This plugin is a newsletter builder, not a mailer. It does not send campaigns, manage subscribers, process unsubscribes, or replace your email marketing service. Instead, it helps you create polished newsletter content and finished HTML that you can use with email platforms that accept HTML, such as FluentCRM, Mailchimp, MailPoet, or the platform you already use.

Lite includes:

  • One saved newsletter workspace.
  • Blank or sample starting options.
  • Rich editors for newsletter body fields.
  • Media Library image selection and direct image URLs.
  • Image size controls.
  • Include block controls and flexible custom sections.
  • Per-button new-tab/window options.
  • Live browser preview.
  • Finished newsletter code for use in compatible email platforms.

For users who want more power, more control, team collaboration, or a stronger workflow for frequent newsletters, Easy Newsletter Builder Pro adds a private front-end newsletter portal that gives approved users a complete newsletter workspace on your website without requiring access to the WordPress admin dashboard. Role-based and individual user permissions let you control who can view, edit, mark newsletters ready for publishing, archive, and manage newsletter work. Pro also includes multiple newsletters, content block sorting, custom themes, personal and global macros, auto-saves, archives, restore tools, builder locking, Knock Knock requests, FluentCRM helpers, activity tracking, dashboard status tools, and a more robust publishing workflow.

Installation

  1. Install the plugin from Plugins > Add New, or upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  2. Activate Easy Newsletter Builder.
  3. Open Easy Newsletter from the admin menu.
  4. Start with a blank newsletter or load the sample newsletter.
  5. Build, preview, and copy the finished newsletter code into your email platform.
