EMAIL SENDING OPTIONS
The biggest issue users have are:
- Email Spammers make successful email delivery a very complicated and specialized function.
- WordPress by default uses your web hosts local mail server to send all WordPress and plugin generated emails.
- Emails sent from a web host local mail server have poor delivery rates because they have very little or no reputation.
- Configuring any type of email delivery provider will improve email delivery rates.
Every different Email Provider requires another plugin to configure. For example here are just a few of the available choices.
At a3rev we want users to be able to
- Create a Beautiful / Professional HTML Email template.
- Auto apply that template to all emails sent from WordPress and installed plugins.
- Easily configure a sending provider to get those emails delivered.
- Do it all with one plugin, quickly and easily.
That is why we have added the Email Sending Provider Configuration Options so you can do all of that with just one plugin – WP Email Template.
EMAIL FROM PLUGINS
WP Email Template will not work with any plugin that:
- Applies it’s own HTML Email Template (WP Email Template is still applied but the 2 together will look bad).
- Send it’s emails via the php() function. WP Email Template is applied to all mail that goes through wp_mail()
Some of the better known plugins of the 1,000’s of plugins that WP Email Template works beautifully with.
- Gravity Forms – see the screen shots – looks sensational with the default Gravity style.
- Contact Form 7 – see the screenshots
- Formidable Forms – both Lite and Pro Versions of that plugin
- WooCommerce – Version 2.3.9 and backward compatible to version 2.1.0. By default the plugin ignores WooCommerce email output – but you can choose to apply your WordPress Email Template to all Woocomerce emails to give you consistent branding across your entire site.
- WP e-Commerce – applies the template to every store generated email to customers and admins
- WP Mail SMPT – WP Email Template does not interfere with the way any WordPress or any plugin handles email output – it just applies the template to any output content.
- BackupBuddy – I love it when even my admin emails are branded – see the screenshots
- Wordfence – Branded security emails – nice.
