The email of a subscriber changed

[vchowca]

Hi there,

I have two problems with the Newsletters plugin.

1. I use my own email account as the test subscriber. I have never unsubscribed it, but I found that it automatically unsubscribes by itself from time to time. Is that normal?

2. As I created this test subscriber when I installed the plugin, it has the first ID number 1. (And now I have many more) Today, I found that the ID: 1 has changed to a different (unknown) email account and again, it has been unsubscribed.

3. Given these two problems, is it possible that my website has been hacked?

Thanks
Vincent

The automatic unsubscription is possible if the unsubscription link is called by automated systems, like an antivirus. I’m working on changing that with a more secure system (it’s a common problem BTW).

The id change is not possible. About the hacking I really don’t know, and there is no reason to change only few data in a database table…

Try to change the token of the use id number 1.

Hello,

I am having this exact same issue with Newsletter. I’m not sure I understand what is causing it.

Does anyone have any advice on how to fix it?

Thank you!!

Very strange… I really don’t know. The email change should not be possible… are you sure the problem is exactly the same? Do you have plugin which integrate or extend the Newsletter one?
