Hey,

Thank you for responding.

I think we’re getting closer to what needs to be done. I may need to be pointed in the right direction to go. To clarify further –

1. I’ve set-up a Cron with the host as shown here, here, and here.

As I set-up a Cron with the host, I don’t need to mess around with the settings here, right? All the settings can be ignored? Do I need to change the mailer? Or do I need to double-check something?

2. My understanding with my host is that I can send 200 emails an hour. Based on the images, I should be able to send 200 emails in the first hour and then the rest in the next, right?

However, I don’t seem to be able to send the rest of the emails? Is there a way to trigger the rest of the emails to be sent? See image here.

3. If I have a Cron job set-up do I need a mailer?

4. If I set-up the WP Mail SMTP Plugin (free version), what mailer do I select in Icegram? Or does it not matter?

5. If I set-up the WP Mail SMTP correctly and I can get a test email sent to myself and if my cron is set-up correctly, the expectation is that when I make a post on my site, 200 post notifications will be sent out in the first hour and the rest in the 2nd, right?

Is there a way to test that without actually sending out emails?

Thanks! ??

Hey,

Thank you for confirming that. I added a cron and spoke with Hostinger and they said it’s set-up correctly.

See https://ibb.co/5rFd7ng and https://ibb.co/M9vJjSX and https://ibb.co/q5vp9qb.

However, in the backend of Icegram Express->Email Notifications there are some settings: https://ibb.co/t27y3Ff.

Since my host says the cronjob is correct and is expected to work, do I need to tweak those settings?

Additionally, do I need any kind of SMTP plugin on the site? I’ve installed WP Mail SMTP but it’s not set-up fully. Do I really need this if the cronjob is expected to work?

Lastly, I had used the default WP Cron to send out emails prior to realizing I needed a more robust cron job via my host. It sent out 168 out of 326 emails. Is there a way to get the rest to go?

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! I’ll poke around and see what’s possible.

Thanks for the suggestions and the bug report. Yay bugs….

I’ll poke around and see if any best meet my client’s needs.

@thelmachido Thank you so much for the help. I could have sworn I tried that CSS but every time I did it wiped the footer out on the pages. Not sure why it’s different. Either way thank you!

@thelmachido Thank you for responding. I checked that and made a tweak to remove a group but the issue still seems to happen?

Thanks for responding! Here is a link to an an example post: https://policemoms.com/test-2/

I think I actually spoke too soon. I enabled the feature and the submenu menu item opens on a click but I cannot click the main menu item “For Police Moms” see https://pasteboard.co/f9T8ivu9iMlf.png

LOL! Thank you so much! That works! It’s always one stupid button somewhere.

Hi! Can you let me know what your developers have discovered?

@devnihil

Good morning! I’m glad to hear from you. ??

I send an email to the Yoast support inbox. It has a copy of the WP Tasty plugin.

Let me know what you find?
