Installation

Installation takes minutes as the product file does every thing apart from one small template modification which is to place the Newsletter link into your navbar! (This template modification is unneccesary if you have Menu Control installed!)

Thanks,

Does this email users by any chance?

No I didn't include that because you could do it just as easily by manually emailing all your users from the Admin CP :)

I'm confused. So, what exactly does this add-on do?

Theres your answer ^^

BAH! I thought it emails the users with an HTML newsletter. Thats what I really want. I was so stoked for a minute.

Marky, I read that. Obviously your description isn't very clear…

I just looked up the word "newsletter"You say it isn't mailed out? Does it even generate a newsletter, or are we writing the whole thing out ourselves? Is it simply an interface that spits out to the public some variable strings we input?

Again, what does this do?

The screenshots say more but the main features is that the modification creates a page on your forum (?do=newsletter) and you can then write your newsletter on there and release it periodically like you say. You could if you wish then email out a notice that your newsletter has been released. It's all HTML ready so it's just as good as emailing a HTML newsletter :)

Is availability or access limited by usergroup?

I was hoping on a mailing out feature and that people could subscribe and unsubscribe. Such a hack would get my vote lol :-)
