The reason I ask is that instead of using bbPress for the newsletter, you could just sign people up for a newsletter service like AWeber if no content is from the forum. Under 500 subscribers is $19/month.</p> <p><a href="http://www.aweber.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.aweber.com/</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-plugin#post-20447 Tue, 04 Nov 2008 10:46:42 +0000 danbbpress 20447@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi Chris. I have an information website focused on a particular subject. With this newsletter I want to provide news/updates related to this subject. Most people participating in my website's forums would likely be interested in receiving these updates via email.</p> <p>Thanks.<br /> Dan </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-plugin#post-20446 Tue, 04 Nov 2008 09:19:00 +0000 chrishajer 20446@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>So, when members join, they can opt in to your newsletter. You want to use bbPress as sort of a member database. But the content you send out would not be bbPress topics and replies necessarily, but maybe something written by you, with links to topics in the forum you found interesting, or topics with no replies, or topics with lots of activity?</p> <p>Just trying to get a clear picture of what you want to do. Thanks. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-plugin#post-20445 Tue, 04 Nov 2008 08:29:42 +0000 danbbpress 20445@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I know this issue has been raised several times before (example posts: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3596" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3596</a> , <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-request-weekly-newsletter#post-16847" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-request-weekly-newsletter#post-16847</a> ).</p> <p>I too would find it very helpful to have a way of sending out a newsletter to forum members (with the option to opt in at signup). I do not use WordPress on my website so integrating BBPress with WP is not an option. Is a newsletter plugin for BBPress going to be developed?</p> <p>Thanks.<br /> Dan </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-7050 Fri, 27 Apr 2007 15:16:21 +0000 citizenkeith 7050@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>How about for those of us who aren't integrating with WordPress? This would be very useful for me. :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3640 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 16:22:02 +0000 flaerpen 3640@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'm not going to send content directly from the forum, just tip the member of usefull topics!</p> <p>Thx alot! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3637 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 15:47:13 +0000 Trent 3637@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>If you are not trying to send 'content' from forums, I would do what chrishajer is saying. Integration of bbPress and WP has both using the WP users, so why re-invent the wheel and use the WP plugin!</p> <p>Trent </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3634 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 14:36:20 +0000 chrishajer 3634@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>If you integrate, your users will be in Wordpress, and then you can search over at <a href="http://wp-plugins.net/" rel="nofollow">http://wp-plugins.net/</a> for mailing list or newsletter. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3633 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 14:27:25 +0000 flaerpen 3633@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hehe, yes! </p> <p>I have plans to integrate my forum with WP but not for the moment.

So you are not going to spam them. They will agree to opt in. You are going to create the content of the newsletter manually. You just need to use the emails from your registrations to send out the newsletter?</p> <p>I know this exists already for Wordpress. Is your forum integrated with Wordpress? If so, then you're already done: just add the Wordpress plugin. If not, then I think you're requesting a plugin. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3630 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 14:00:47 +0000 flaerpen 3630@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Okey! Of course I'm not going to send out spam to my members! The content will be tips, some new information about the forum, popular topics and so on.. </p> <p>The word mailinglist is alot better word than "Newsletter by email"!</p> <p>To subscribe to this list you have to agree with it and this is also a serious forum and a serious mailinglist! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3629 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 13:30:41 +0000 chrishajer 3629@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I for one am not sure what you are looking for.</p> <p>Are you looking to use the email addresses from the bbPress installation to send out an email newsletter? So, the registration emails become your mailing list? What will the newsletter content be? Is the content from your forums? And if so, what content will be sent?</p> <p>Also, if people did not opt in to your newsletter (they just registered on your site), you could be spamming them with a newsletter they didn't ask for. That's illegal in the US (CAN-SPAM compliance) and might be illegal in other countries too. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3628 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 13:14:56 +0000 flaerpen 3628@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>is it hard to understand or is there nobody who know how to do? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-by-email#post-3596 Wed, 24 Jan 2007 19:03:37 +0000 flaerpen 3596@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hello, I would like the function to send newsletter by email to members in my bbpress forum! I know the emails is saved in the database (or?) so this would not be any problems to integrate or make an plugin, i think. The only problem is that I'm not the man for this job ;) </p>
