I am back using jetpack now, but the problem is still here, the regular subscriber list doesn't change and they don't receive any newsletter through email. :(

saravitalisustainabletourism — Sun, 19 May 2013 21:43:10 +0000

no at the moment.
At the beginning (one months ago) I suppose as the blog the website will automatically share through email every post.
after I tried with jetpack Subscriptions (15 days ago) and it was working for the new subscribers who are subscribing from this form.

but I still receive subscriptions from the wordpress.com account (the follow button when you visit a blog) and these do not recieve any post or other informations.

Do you have a newsletter plugin on your site?

saravitalisustainabletourism on "moved from wp.com to a wp.org, subscribers don't receive newsletter anymore"

saravitalisustainabletourism — Sun, 19 May 2013 21:30:49 +0000

hi, please can you help me with my problem?
I moved from wp.com blog to a wp.org website, I have activate redirection already but my blog subscribers, even if they appears on the user list, do not receive newsletter anymore, since then.

the first one: http://sustainabletourismworld.wordpress.com/
is redirected to
the second: http://www.sustainabletourismworld.org

I tried to solve the problem using the wordpress plugin Jetpack, but it is not a solution.
I have already asked into wp.org forum but they suggested me:

- If you moved your site from WordPress.COM to WordPress.ORG, you need to ask the WP.COM support team to move your subscribers for you. Post on the WordPress.COM forums, and include both URLs and confirm that you already have JetPack activated on your new site. -

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

I'm wondering if I can approximate what a marketing service does (sending out an entire newsletter) with wordpress.com

kellysalasin on "Newsletters"

kellysalasin — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 16:55:11 +0000

Thanks, but when an email goes out to subscribers, it just sends a single post; not an entire "newsletter" (with multiple articles ) correct?

timethief on "Newsletters"

timethief — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 16:53:41 +0000

The content of the second "newsletter"blog can be any content your wish to include in the newsletter. The second blog can have it's own follow blog widget for newsletter subscribers. You can create a custom menu on your main blog and include a custom link to your newsletter blog in it.

kellysalasin — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 16:43:43 +0000

This article discusses it, but it sounds like very post is a newsletter that is emailed, and I already have a blog, I want the emailed "newsletter"to send out a compilation of materials.

I was in the process of creating a newsletter template on an email marketing service which was a lot like creating a blog on WP; and I wondered, could I just create a newsletter blog? I know there are some themes that are compatible for news, but I wasn't sure if/how "the newsletter" could be mailed to subscribers. Any experience, thoughts, insights... What am I missing?

yes, like I mentioned I already have a wordpress.org website which I am currently using for ecommerce. I was thinking of switching but it looks like it's not for me.

Indeed and that's why I keep pointing the blogger to this comparison http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

raincoaster on "Plugins"

raincoaster — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 23:14:41 +0000

WordPress.com is designed for personal and professional blogging, not for ecommerce.

timethief on "Plugins"

timethief — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 22:48:35 +0000

Those with WordPress.org installs have FTP access and can install their own themes, third party themes and plugins.
Please read this comparison http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

beccadesty — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 22:47:50 +0000

Okay. I had read through the plugins link but wasn't clear that I would have to purchase enterprise for that. Thank you clearing that up. So I could only run a ecommerce site if I purchased enterprise at $500/month? and even then it's not confirmed that I would even be able to have access to a plugin with a shopping cart (I didn't see any on the sample sites).
Not gonna lie. That's pretty outrageous.
Thanks for the info.

Free hosted WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for ecommerce.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins

There is no FTP access to our free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we blogger cannot install any plugins into them. The only upgrade you can purchase that allows FTP access and the ability to install themes or plugins is the Enterprise upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/#plugins-withwordpress-com-enterprise

... all of our paid upgrades, including premium themes and Custom Design, and the best of all the built-in WordPress.com VIP features such as 70+ approved plugins which include integrations with top partners such as Flipboard, Chartbeat, and Facebook, and custom JavaScript for $500 a month per site. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2012/12/13/introducing-wordpress-com-enterprise/

Those with WordPress.org installs have FTP access and can install their own themes, third party themes and plugins.

Hello! I currently have a wordpress.org site with a different host but I'm thinking of switching to this hosting due to issues with my current website. I would like to switch to a premium wordpress.com hosted website but I have one worry. I need plugins. Particularly this one: http://www.ultra-prod.com/products-modules-plugin/wp-ultra-simple-paypal-shopping-cart/
Or one like it because my website would be useless to me without a shopping cart. I also need a plugin to help with making and sending newsletters. The one I've been using is wysija: http://www.wysija.com/

I have looked through the list of plugins already incorporated into wordpress and am not sure what all of them do so here is my question:
Are there plugins already incorporated into wordpress which would take care of either of the functions I need (a shopping cart/check out and a newsletter)?
If not I was directed that I could make the suggestion to have them added in this forum so I would like to do so with the two plugins mentioned above.

guatdajel — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 19:09:21 +0000

Hey guys i've been working on a custom theme on wordpress for a few days now and i've done most of it but now i'm stuck. I've got a form that takes and email address and there's a submit button however I can't seem to find a plugin that can work with it some how...I'm not even sure if I should be using a plugin or manually writing the code for it some how. I'm not the most wordpress savvy person as you can probably tell. http://imgur.com/Ypewfa8
It's a single paged website/landing page and I just need some guidance at the moment, i've seen a few wordpress gurus with their own customised mailing list form and i'd like to do the same for mine. Any help, thoughts or recommendations would be much appreciated at this juncture.

pyxelpx on "Wysija Newsletter : Images don’t display"

pyxelpx — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 19:58:05 +0000

Hi,

First, I would to say sorry for my english, I’m french.

I already trying to resolve my problem with this solution : http://support.wysija.com/knowledgebase/images-dont-display-after-install-solution/ but I still have the problem.

I can’t see the images when I drag and drop them from my library to the newsletter, and inevitably, they not showing in the final newsletter too.

I’m 99% sure that the problem come from the URL of the images. I have recently changed my domain and Wysija still have the old URL domain for the images… But when I go the image library of WordPress, all the images have the new URL. So my website don’t have any problem for display images. The problem only come from Wysija.

Can you tell me how to proceed to change the URL of all the images in my library with Wysija ?

Thanks,

Florian
