Remove Email Subscribers

Were you able to resolve the problem? If so, how did you do it?

Thanks,

Eric

Thankfully, I only have three subscribers so their easy to unsubscribe. From this point forward I’m using Aweber (which is tricky on its own). However, WordPress is made of hundreds of php pages, includes and functions which dynamically create content. So, the subscribers must reside somewhere in your WordPress files. I quickly glanced this morning at the file structure through Dreamweavers remote side and found Jetpack nested deep in the folder structure. There’s modules, widgets, menus and plugins all clearly labeled.

If you have a lot of subscribers I’d suggest digging and opening up relative folders and pages within your file structure. Php pages, XML docs, look inside the database if possible, or look for json files (javascript XML). I find it bizarre there’s not a direct guide of how to do this. Maybe you need a database query or the developers of jetpack may even think its dangerous to eliminate subscribers, like tampering with an htaccess file – some files are just better left alone.

I’m afraid all who need to ditch their jetpack subscribers need to be creative and technical on this one.

Best of luck 🙂

If you do figure out, I’d LOVE to know!
