A test email of the newsletter works. Sending one newsletter to 7 subscribers does not. My provider added the Cron. Documentation is extremely confusing to me. Engine problems say schedule has been skipped and scheduler is overloaded. Downloaded WP-control – don’t know what to do with it.
Any help would be appreciated.
EricaOk I didn’t give up. Deactivated cache plugins, set a schedule, and Newsletter was delivered two minutes after scheduled time.
Whew.Uhm, usually a cache plugin never blocks the wp-cron.php, so probably the provider has not added the cron call correctly.
Ok thanks for your reply – I’ll have to wait until next time I send a newsletter (aiming to send every two weeks or so) to see what happens then.
When I test the cron.php in the browser it does return a blank page which is good (?) if I’m understanding the documentation correctly?It could be me, in that the first few times I was not scheduling a send, only using ‘send now’. There was a two minute delay between the scheduled send and when the newsletter sent. I’m understanding all the elements involved a bit better now. If there’s trouble on the next send I will definitely contact the provider.
This newsletter plugin is great – it adds so much to the site and enables deeper connection with subscribers.
Thanks again
