Multilist Subscribe for Sendy integrates WordPress post notifications into one or more of your Sendy email marketing campaigns. Setup is easy and Sendy can leverage the power of Amazon’s Simple Email Service (SES), or any SMTP relay service, for dependable email marketing.

How to Use

  1. Navigate to “Sendy Email Templates”, then “Add New”, to create a Sendy campaign template associated with a post type – Subscribers to this campaign will receive the campaign emails when a new post of that post type is published.
  2. Navigate to “Appearance”, then “Widgets”, and add a “Sendy Multilist” widget to your WordPress website – this is the subscribe form for the Sendy campaigns you created in the previous step.
