It helps site owners collect subscribers with customizable popup forms, organize subscribers by campaign, send newsletter broadcasts, and create simple autoresponder sequences without sending subscriber data to a third-party service. The plugin adds a **Campaigns** menu to the WordPress admin area. From there you can create popup campaigns, review subscriber activity, export your list, configure autoresponder messages, write newsletter broadcasts, and update sender details for confirmation emails. Sky Campaigns is designed for site owners who want a lightweight list-building tool inside WordPress. It uses WordPress database tables for campaign and subscriber records, WordPress cron for queued autoresponder processing, and WordPress mail functions for outgoing email. #### Campaign Management Create and manage subscription campaigns from the WordPress dashboard. Each campaign can include: * Campaign name and description. * Active or inactive status. * Popup template selection. * Custom headline, sub-headline, and button text. * Optional name field. * Background and accent color controls. * Optional image URL for supported templates. * Display trigger settings. * Subscriber count tracking. #### Popup Templates Sky Campaigns includes six popup template styles: * Classic * Bold * Minimal * Dark Luxury * Gradient * Split Panel Templates are rendered on the front end for active campaigns and use the campaign settings you define in the admin area. Front-end assets are loaded conditionally when active campaigns or embedded forms are present. #### Display Triggers Choose when a popup campaign appears: * Time delay in seconds. * Scroll depth percentage. * Exit intent. * Immediate display. These trigger settings are stored per campaign, so different campaigns can use different display behavior. #### Subscriber Management The Subscribers screen lets you: * View subscriber email addresses and names. * Filter subscribers by campaign. * Search subscribers by email or name. * See active and total subscriber counts. * Export subscribers to CSV. * Track subscription status and subscription date. Subscribers are stored in your WordPress database using custom `skyca_` tables. #### Auto Responders Create automated follow-up emails for each campaign. Auto responders support: * Campaign-specific automation. * Email subject and HTML body content. * Delay settings in days and hours. * Send order. * Active or inactive status. * Queued delivery through WordPress cron. When a new subscriber joins a campaign, active autoresponders for that campaign are queued for that subscriber. #### Newsletters The Newsletters screen lets you create broadcast emails for your subscribers. You can: * Create draft newsletters. * Add an email subject and HTML body. * Send to all active subscribers. * Send to selected campaigns. * Save and send immediately. * Store scheduled date/time information. * View newsletter status, sent count, and sent date. #### Email Settings The Settings screen includes sender and confirmation email options: * From name. * From email. * Confirmation email subject. * Confirmation email body. Confirmation emails and newsletter content can use merge tags to personalize messages. #### Merge Tags The following merge tags can be used in supported email subjects and bodies: * `{{first_name}}` * `{{last_name}}` * `{{email}}` * `{{blog_name}}` * `{{blog_url}}` * `{{date}}` #### Shortcode Use the shortcode below to embed an inline subscription form in posts, pages, widgets, or compatible builder content: ``` [skyca_form campaign_id="1"] ``` Replace `1` with the ID of the campaign you want the form to use. The shortcode renders the campaign’s subscription form when the campaign exists and is active. #### Privacy and Data Sky Campaigns stores subscriber data in your own WordPress database. Stored subscriber data can include email address, first name, last name, campaign ID, subscription status, subscription date, and unsubscribe date. The plugin does not send subscriber records to an external email marketing platform by itself. Outgoing messages are sent through WordPress using the mail configuration available on your site. For reliable delivery, many sites use an SMTP or transactional email plugin alongside WordPress. You are responsible for using the plugin in a way that complies with privacy laws and email marketing rules that apply to your site, audience, and location. Before collecting subscribers, review your privacy policy, consent language, unsubscribe process, and email sending practices. #### Developer Notes Sky Campaigns uses the `skyca_` prefix for plugin options, tables, AJAX actions, hooks, and public shortcode naming. The main public shortcode is `skyca_form`. ## Installation 1. Upload the `sky-campaigns` plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the plugin ZIP from **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**. 2.
