BwPostman 4 ist eine vollständige und umfangreiche Newsletter-Erweiterung für Joomla!® 4.
Die Eigenschaften von BwPostman 4:
- Die Inhalte der Newsletter können aus freiem Text und in Joomla!® vorhandenen Beiträgen zusammengestellt werden.
- Die Newsletter können personalisiert werden.
- In BwPostman kann man unbeschränkt viele Mailinglisten anlegen und so für jede nur denkbare Konstellation an Abonnenten (Gäste, registrierte Benutzer, Thema...) eine eigene Mailingliste anlegen.
- BwPostman erstellt die Newsletter immer sowohl im HTML- als auch im Textformat.
- Umfangreiches Template-Sytem, um das Erscheinungsbild der Newsletter einfach anpassen zu können. Mitgelieferte Templates können kopiert und angepasst werden oder es können ganz freie Templates für die Newsletter erstellt werden (ganz dickes Danke an Karl Klostermann!).
- Die Kampagnenverwaltung in BwPostman ermöglicht es, thematisch zusammen gehörende Newsletter in einer Kampagne zusammenzufassen.
- Abonnenten können per CSV- oder per XML-Datei eingelesen werden. So ist es zum Beispiel möglich, aus Email-Programmen das Adressbuch zu exportieren und in BwPostman zu importieren. Auch der Export der vorhandenen Abonnenten ist möglich.
- Abonnenten, Newsletter, Mailinglisten, Kampagnen und Templates lassen sich archivieren oder auch wieder aus dem Archiv wiederherstellen.
- Eine Besonderheit ist die Möglichkeit einzustellen, wie viele Mails auf einmal versendet werden.
- Man kann bis zu 20 Anhänge mit dem Newsletter versenden.
- Modul für die Anmeldung zum Newsletter.
- Modul für monatliche Übersicht im Frontend mit vielfältigen Einstellmöglichkeiten.
- Für das Frontend vorgegebene CSS-Stile können in selbst erstellter CSS-Datei überschrieben werden.
- Texte der Aktivierungsmail und des Impressums sind anpassbar.
- Der Webmaster oder eine andere Person kann sich informieren lassen, wenn ein Abonnent sein Abonnement bestätigt hat.
- Die Anzeige im Newsletter von Autor und Erstellungsdatum der Beiträge aus Joomla!® können in den Optionen an- und abgeschaltet werden.
- Vorkehrungen gegen Anmeldungen durch Robots als kleine Rechenaufgabe oder benutzerdefinierte Frage, sind in den Optionen einstellbar (großes Danke an Karl Klostermann).
- Die Tabellen von BwPostman können gesichert und wiederhergestellt werden.
- Die Tabellen von BwPostman können überprüft und repariert werden.
- Es ist eine beschränkte Migration auf eine andere Joomla!®-Installation möglich.
- Ausführliches Handbuch, weitere Hilfe im Forum.
