Mailster is a plugin purchased from Code Canyon that has been heavily modified to fit the needs of CUL unit sites. Edits have been made to allow for the integration of Mailgun mailing lists as subscribers. The ability of the Mailing List in WordPress to be able to unsubscribe has been removed, as this is handled solely in Mailgun. Templates have been created for Mann's Mannifest and Catherwood's Workplace Issues Today. A copy of our mailster edits can be found in the Pantheon repos for Mann and Catherwood, or in Box.
