How do I Email all of the Users/Authors of my blog?

  • Is this possible?

    I’d like to be able to email all of the Users/Authors of my blog through the admin control panel

    Does anyone know of a plugin that makes this possible…

    I relaise that I can click on thier individual names/emails but I’d like to email them all in one go

    thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction,

  • There are “subscribe to” type plugins, but offhand I can’t think of one that lets you just email all users at a go. You could certainly pull all user emails from the database through a query, though, and stick that in say the bcc (blind carbon copy) of an email message.

    SQL command to grab all addresses:

    SELECT user_email FROM wp_users;

    Make sure to change the users table prefix (wp_) if not using the default. If you’d like a little php script that grabs the emails and sets them all up in a comma-separated list:

    https://paste.uni.cc/7438

    Download and save that as a php file (ex: emails.php), and run it on your site through your browser.

    Is it possible to use this to let all users get a notification whenever something new is posted, be it posts or comments? I have set up a blog to be used for discussion within a small group of people, and there is agreement that we want this kind of notification. I have searched for plugins, but they all seem either to notify only on new posts, or on comments to one’s own comments.
    What I would like is the same service that the admin has for all users, without having to upgrade them all to level 10…
