Feed by Mail Post Selection based on User Preferences

[mitchrobot]

Hi, I’ve been reading the documentation and forum but don’t understand if Newsletter can fulfill my need. Sorry if this is already addressed somewhere.

My question is, can the Feed by Mail automatically send emails that include only certain categories of posts based on the subscribers options? Or perhaps their profile option?

For example, I have a food blog for three cities. I want users to be able to subscribe to receive a weekly digest of posts that have a category for their specific city, and not the others.

(Ex: A user will select “Shanghai” in their preferences, and the automated email will send a weekly digest of the posts with a category of “Shanghai”, but not posts with the categories “Beijing” or “Guangzhou”.)

If this isn’t possible, do you have a recommendation for the another way to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Hi, the answer is no. The generated newsletter is static so there cannot be content change based on the receiver.

Hi, Stefano!

Thanks so much for your response! A follow up question, can Feed by Mail plugin generate multiple generated newsletters, each with its own recipient list?

For example, an automated newsletter for category X posts that sends out every Wednesday and another automated newsletter for category Y posts that send out to a different list of users every Monday?

Actually not. It’s a thing I want to implement but actually there is not an available version of that new feature.

Bye, Stefano.
