    That was going to be a question too; do you have an addon for postie that can email subscribers?, yes, I use a plugin to send posts as soon as they are plublished and it is called “Email Subscribers” from Store Apps.
    Do you think its changing something in the post or just not taking over that link correctly?
    Is there a way to just unsubscribe with just the email address?
    The email sent correctly indicates the email address of the subscriber. If I click on a thumbnail image in an email it opens the website post with the full sized picture, so that works fine.
    Thanks for all your help.

    Now the unsubscribe link,
    this is what the email contains;
    http://tonysr2build.co.uk/?es=unsubscribe&db=###DBID###&email=###EMAIL###&guid=###GUID###”
    so it looks like the fields are not being loaded with the actual values.

    seems to be Thumbnail left that does the required format in the post but not in the email;

    Are you saying no matter what I change from that custom will hold what it had?

    OK no change for unsubscribe link it still gives the Oops error.
    the link at the bottom of the email contains all the ###fieldnames### instead of the actual values, email, dbid etc..
    As for the legact template, it placed all the images on the left of the post and the email in one column, so went back to the custom template and that is now the same, think I’m trying to cure more than one thing at a time and losing what changes what!

    Also,
    The Unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email sent to subscribers still does not work, it gives me this error;
    Oops.. We are getting some technical error. Please try again or contact admin.
    will try legacy template now

    Yes using PLAIN,
    change WP media settings thumbnail size down to 100.
    Changed Postie image template to custom;
    result is the post now has the images below the text and in a single line across the post. However the email has them below the text but now they are not in line, i.e image 2 is in the middle but lower on the page than image 1 and image 3 is then lower than image 2. Strange, I will just have to play with sizes and positions until both the post and the email have the same layout.
    Thanks again

    Wayne,
    “Automatically insert image gallery” is set to NO, If I set that to yes the other plugin I use to send new posts out to subscribers cannot reslove the gallery link in the generated email, so in my case NO is the only option and it works fine, but,
    “Image Location” is set to AFTER, but the first (or only image if just one) thumbnail is not exactly placed After the text, if the text ends on a short line the image is placed to the right of the text, technically yes thats after, but I would like it to appear Below the text even on short lines. This happens in the post and is the same in the sent email to subscribers.
    Thanks for you reply.

    Test run from my dashboard, it sort of works but not how I want it to. Only the first image is attached and visible in the email message. With the first plugin I used, (the one that will not auto send) the email contained all the images as thumbnails on clicking any thumbnail in the email message the web blog post image would open full size. So the reason I would like my email messages of my latest post to work this way is so that some of my subscribers are happy enough to just look at the email thumbnails and do not bother to click anything in the email message to open the web blog post itself or its images. If this is not possible I will have to look for an alternative plugin that will a) show all images as thumbnails and b) Auto send to all subscribers when the new post is published.

    I will bypass Postie that I email my posts with and try an ADD post within my dashboard and see what happens to the images in the post. Will update here when done/tested. Thing is the alternative plugin that Emails Subscribers attaches the images with no problem even submitting the posts with postie, I switched to Mailpoet because that other plugin would not auto send the email post updates. Thanks

    Can I add the subscribers name to my emails thus making each subscriber email personalised? Thanks Tony.
