Very useful
by Albertus59·Today
Very handy plugin, easy to use and to adapt to your wishes.
I use it to inform subscribed readers when a new message has been published
Design it in the backend, looks completely different in front

I hate and loathe poorly designed plugins. It has not been tested, and having to hack a plugin to get it to work as expected, though now normal practice nowadays, results in 1 star. Don’t publish pieces of crap.
Blessedly easy to use!
by siavahda·4 weeks ago
I’m tech-illiterate and have struggled so much trying to set up a newsletter – after going through a dozen others, including MailPoet (which kept pausing sending for no reason) and Mail Chimp (confusing) Noptin was such a RELIEF, so easy to use! The free version isn’t super fancy, but it does everything I want it to, and it gets a million points from me for being so simple and intuitive. THANK YOU.
Easy to use and a great API
by murraycollingwood·1 month ago
My requirements were simple, a single list of customers that I send a quarterly newsletter to. Noptin allowed me to compose the newsletter, import a list of customers, and then send emails. No problem. Well, not entirely, there are still those pesky email servers that block mail based on SPF and DKIM, so I had to configure some email options. I was still getting some issues so I switched out to smtp2go in order to send my emails. This seems to be working better.
Lastly, the API is working really well. When a customer is logged into the SAAS they can toggle an option to receive the newsletter, at which point I send an API request to toggle the email address – works great.
Exactly what I needed
