Lets you configure CiviCRM mailings to be sent on a recurring schedule.
Requirements
CiviCRM 4.7
Installation
- Download a release from https://github.com/3sd/civicrm-recurring-mail/releases to your extensions directory
- Browse to Administer > System Settings > Extensions
- Find Recurring mail and click Install
Getting started
Install the extension and compose your mail as normal. On the Review and Schedule screen, you will see a third option Send on a recurring schedule. Selecting this option will reveal a set of fields where you can defined the recurrence schedule.
Once you mailing is ready to send, click Schedule and instances of your recurring mailing will be scheduled to be sent out according to the schedule you defined.
You can edit the master mailing and adjust the recurrence schedule as necessary. All instances of the recurring mailing will be updated automatically.
Note: out-of-the-box, CiviCRM calculates the recipients for a mailing based on the contacts that are in your include/exclude groups/mailings at the time that you hit the submit button. This means that any contacts that are added or removed to your groups in the time between when you hit the submit button and the date it is scheduled to go out will not receive your mailing. If you want your recipients to be recalculated before the mailing is sent you, you should install the recalculate recipients extension.
