    This is more of a request or a query about what is possible.

    We have WordPress programmers on hand, but before we start contemplating our own Frankenstein solution, I’d like to ask if anyone has had a similar problem to resolve.

    Basically: We have a site with Newsletter + TEC + Registrations for TEC.

    We use Newsletter to send invitations for events.

    However, if a user is *already* signed up to an event, we’d like to exclude them from the recipient list.

    The recipient list is “all users on the site” by default. Is there a way to build a *dynamic* exclusion list pulled from somewhere else?

    Hello,

    this is certainly doable, in some way, but not natively. Your best bet is to create a custom addon (or function, which is basically the same thing) that updates recursively a dedicated Newsletter list and excludes the users that actually signed up to an event. This can be tricky though, as someone could sign up for the event while the newsletter is sending, for example, and you also need to “sync” the right TNE fields with the list. Anyway, a skilled developer should be able to do this.

    Uhm, just to know, the registration for TEC is a plugin? Is it freely available?

    Hey Stefano,

    Sure is – it’s available here:
