Getting Started<\/h3>\n\n

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.<\/p>\n\n

Prerequisites<\/h3>\n\n

A running copy of WordPress, with Administrator login details.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin should be platform (Windows\/Mac\/*Nix) independent, and doesn't require any particular versions of PHP to run.<\/p>\n\n

It does request jQuery and jQueryUI to be loaded from WordPress, though these should already be bundled in all standard (i.e. non-very-specific instances where they've been deliberately disabled) installs.<\/p>\n\n

Installing<\/h3>\n\n

You can install most simply by using the WordPress plugin directory.<\/p>\n\n

Alternately, you can download the lastest zipped copy of the plugin from GitHub:\nhttps:\/\/github.com\/PhilTanner\/wppt-emailer\/archive\/master.zip<\/p>\n\n

Log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu, and click [Add New] at the top of the page.<\/p>\n\n

Click [Upload Plugin]<\/p>\n\n

Click [Choose File]<\/p>\n\n

Select the wppt-emailer-master.zip<\/code> file you've just downloaded.<\/p>\n\n

Click [Install Now]<\/p>\n\n

Running the tests<\/h3>\n\n

Select the [Phil's Emailer] link in the Dashboard navigation.<\/p>\n\n

Enter your SMTP mail settings, and click the Test button.<\/p>\n\n

If it works, you will get a success statement appear on the right. If not - hopefully a meaningful message as to why not.<\/p>\n\n

Please NOTE!:<\/h3>\n\n

The email address receipt is tested by sending the email to a 3rd party external service, Ghost Inspector (https:\/\/ghostinspector.com\/).<\/p>\n\n

Ghost Inspector is a really useful automated test suite - which provides a way to test applications sending of emails. I recommend you check it out if you want to run any form of automated tests against your web sites.<\/p>\n\n

The mail sent to their server contains only fixed text, with no details about your system (other than the From: address the emails are sent from). The email inbox is deleted after an hour and is not retained.<\/p>\n\n

For more information about their email test gateway, you can view their documentation here:\nhttps:\/\/ghostinspector.com\/docs\/check-email\/<\/p>\n\n
