Automatically Send an Email to New WordPress Users

This guide shows you how to automatically send a welcome email to new WordPress users or set up a series of welcome emails to act as an email course.

To do this:-

First, click on Noptin > Email Campaigns to open the email campaigns management page.

open email campaigns page

Next, click on the Automated Emails tab to open the automated emails management page…

open automated emails tab

… then click on the “New Campaign” button to open the automated campaign creation page.

If this is your first time creating an automated email, Noptin will open the campaign creation page without first opening the campaign overview page.

Finally, click on the “Welcome New Users” button to create a new campaign.

Noptin will open a new screen allowing you to edit and save your campaign.

Editing your campaign

Noptin does not come with a drag-and-drop email builder. Instead, it allows you to write your email as you would normally write a normal blog post and then style the email using a template.

edit noptin new user email

This guide shows you how to create email campaigns using a drag-and-drop email builder.

Here are some of the things you can edit:-

  1. The email subject.
  2. The contents of your email.
  3. The recipients. This allows you to send your email to the new user or to anyone else, e.g, the site admin.
  4. The timing of your email. You can decide whether you would like to send your email immediately, or wait for a few minutes, hours, or days before sending the email.
  5. You can also exclude certain user roles from receiving the email campaign.

Sample Email

Here is a sample welcome email that you can set up:-
