Send email for new content - Bolt Extension

Bolt extension to send email when new content is published

Known limitations

• Notification email send each time you "depublish -> publish", beacause I do not track notification already sent.

Requirements

• Bolt 3.x installation
• [optional] Newsletter Subscription to save registered emails in database.

Installation

1. Login to your Bolt installation
2. Go to "View/Install Extensions" (Hover over "Extras" menu item)
3. Type sendemail-fornewcontent into the input field
4. Click on the extension name
5. Click on "Browse Versions"
6. Click on "Install This Version" on the latest stable version

Set up

Email notifications will be sent, you should configure the mailoptions setting in your Bolt app/config/config.yml.

Note:

• This extension uses the Swiftmailer library to send email notifications, based on the mailoptions: setting in your Bolt app/config/config.yml file.
• When first installed, Extension defaults to turning debugging on in the configuration. This should be turned off when deployed in production. When debugging is on, all outbound emails are sent to the configured debug email address.
• When you install Extension, you may have to create app/config/extensions/boltsendemailfornewcontent.leskis.yml.

Tip: If you want to modify the HTML templates, you should copy the .yml file to your theme/ folder, and modify it there. Any changes in the file in the distribution might be overwritten after an update to the extension. For instance, if you copy email.twig to theme/base-2016/my_email.twig, the corresponding line in config.yml should be: emailbody: my_email.twig
