Add a signup form to any page with a shortcode, collect subscribers, send welcome emails, manage unsubscribes, and review send logs without adopting a large marketing automation platform. This plugin sends email through the normal WordPress mail system. For reliable delivery, use an SMTP or transactional email delivery plugin. ### Features * Create editable email sequences. * Add sequence steps by day offset. * Place signup forms anywhere with the [mkesiems_signup] shortcode. * Create draft signup pages from the admin area. * Collect first name and email address. * Honeypot and minimum-time anti-spam checks. * Optional double opt-in confirmation. * Automatic unsubscribe links. * Merge tags for name, email, site name, sequence name, and unsubscribe URL. * WP-Cron send queue every 15 minutes. * Subscriber management with pause, activate, unsubscribe, and delete. * CSV subscriber export. * Send logs and manual process-now button. * Test email tool and delivery warning. ### Shortcode Basic: [mkesiems_signup sequence=”welcome-series”] With options: [mkesiems_signup sequence=”welcome-series” title=”Join the list” button_text=”Sign Up” show_name=”yes” context=”homepage”] Attributes: * sequence – sequence slug. * title – optional form title. * button_text – custom button text. * success_message – custom success message. * show_name – yes or no. * context – optional source tag stored with the subscriber. ### Privacy This plugin stores subscriber email addresses, optional first names, signup source URLs, form context, confirmation data, unsubscribe status, and send logs in your WordPress database. The plugin does not send subscriber data to an external service by itself. ## Screenshots [⌊MKE Simple Email Sequencer overview graphic for the WordPress.org plugin listing.⌉⌊ MKE Simple Email Sequencer overview graphic for the WordPress.org plugin listing .⌉[ MKE Simple Email Sequencer overview graphic for the WordPress.org plugin listing.
