Title: [Plugin: MailPress] Doesn't Create Mail per Post except for Admin Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: MailPress] Doesn't Create Mail per Post except for Admin * [audreyb81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/audreyb81/) * (@audreyb81) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/) * I have installed and configured Mailpress to send notifications per post just to test. I also have the batch set up to send every hour. When I create a new post without a featured image, there are no problems; the mail gets created and shows in the ‘Mails’ section, and is queued for sending. If I create a post with a featured image, however, it does not create a mail at all. I’ve searched everywhere for what could be the cause of this, but have not had any success. I am using multiple plugins, and have tested with them disabled with the same result. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mailpress/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mailpress/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [arena](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arena/) * (@arena) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875024) * what mailpress theme are you using ? * Thread Starter [audreyb81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/audreyb81/) * (@audreyb81) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875025) * Hi Renaut, * I am using a modified version of TwentyEleven. * Plugin Author [arena](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arena/) * (@arena) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875026) * Hi Audrey * and are you using twentyeleven as your wordpress theme ? * Thread Starter [audreyb81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/audreyb81/) * (@audreyb81) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875030) * Hi Renaut, * I’m sorry; I’m using twentyeleven as my Mailpress theme, and the modified twentyeleven as my WordPress Theme. * [kingjamesI](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingjamesi/) * (@kingjamesi) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875058) * I’m having a similar problem. I’m using the latest mailpress and WP 3.4.1, but no posts are sent out. The test function works fine, but there’s no auto sends happening. * I haven’t tested featured images, but I know an email is not going out for a post without one. * I’m also using a customized theme from MP, but as I said, the test emails are fine. * [kingjamesI](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingjamesi/) * (@kingjamesi) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875059) * Follow Up: * I can’t prove this was my MailPress problem, but my client had renamed the default post category and then created a mailing list by the same exact name. Form what I could determine from the logs, no posts were ever found to be processed by the system. * Well, with the mailing list as it was and the indexes and keys the way the were in the db tables, I assumed that was the reason MP could not find any posts to process. * So, I set about to create another category for posts and create different mailing list, yada, yada, once I posted to the new cat, the newsletter arrived in my email. * Lesson/Suggestion: don’t create a mailing list names exactly like a post category. * [gipic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gipic/) * (@gipic) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875100) * I currently use WP 3.5, Mailpress 5.3, Theme Graphene 1.8.2, Theme TwentyTwelve for Mailpress. * I have the same problem described by audreyb81 in his post. * I will try to publish post without “featured image” to verify (I think it’s true, I’m verified the last 5 mails sended and all are without featured image). * [gipic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gipic/) * (@gipic) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875101) * I confirm that the problem is related to the “featured image”. If I do not load the “featured image” the mail is successfully sent otherwise the mail is not sent. * [Graham Stoney](https://wordpress.org/support/users/greyham/) * (@greyham) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875103) * I’ve just noticed exactly the same problem on my site. Reading this thread, it’s just twigged that MailPress stopped sending posts at the same time that I started religiously using featured images. * Here’s a log entry for one such post: * ``` 2013-03-04 09:02:03 000000 -- **** Start logging **** mp_sched_proc_newsletter *** level : 8191 **** (5.3) **** /wp-admin/post.php 2013-03-04 09:02:03 000000 -- !------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------! 2013-03-04 09:02:03 000000 -- !

The problem seems to be related to MailPress’s attempts to reproduces the TwentyTen theme’s bad habit of changing the header image to the featured image; which almost certainly isn’t what you want anyway. See [this article for how to fix it](http://buildyourblog.net/email/mailpress/fix-for-posts-with-featured-image-not-being-sent-mailpress). * Cheers, Graham Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘[Plugin: MailPress] Doesn't Create Mail per Post except for Admin’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/mailpress_f0e2c4.svg) * [MailPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailpress/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailpress/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpress/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpress/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpress/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpress/reviews/) * 10 replies * 5 participants * Last reply from: [Graham Stoney](https://wordpress.org/support/users/greyham/) * Last activity: [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailpress-doesnt-create-mail-per-post-except-for-admin/#post-2875104) * Status: not resolved
