Better Notifications for WP Support

<p>Better Notifications for WP is a simple but powerful plugin for that allows you to customise the email notifications that WordPress sends using a WYSIWYG editor and shortcodes. All of the default WordPress email notifications are available to customise as well as lots of new ones. You can choose to send notifications to individual users, multiple users, all users in a user role, multiple roles – you name it! You can also power-up your notifications with <a href="https://betternotificationsforwp.com/downloads/" rel="nofollow ugc">Premium Add-ons</a>. Emails are sent out via your WordPress website (using <code>wp_mail</code>) but can be sent via SMTP using a  3rd party plugin should you wish.<br />
If you want to let users create their own email notifications/subscriptions/alerts, check out my other plugin: <a href="https://contentnotify.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Content Notify</a>.</p>
<p>Here’s a quick walkthrough of the plugin in action:<br />

<p>Custom Notifications and Alerts without a hassle. Notify anyone about any action in your WordPress. With powerful Merge Tags, you can endlessly customize your messages. Set unlimited Notifications in your WordPress Admin via the beautiful and intuitive interface within 5 minutes.</p>
<span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe loading="lazy" class="youtube-player" width="750" height="422" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gW2KHrT_a7U?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-US&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span>
<h4>DEFAULT WORDPRESS EMAILS OVERWRITE</h4>
<p>Now, with this plugin, you can easily disable default WordPress emails and replace them with your own. To do that you can use our awesome Wizard which will guide you through the process.</p>
<h4>HOW DOES IT WORK</h4>
<p>The Notification plugin is built with three main components:</p>
<ul>
<li>Trigger – a WordPress action, ie. User registration or Post publication</li>
<li>Carrier – the thing which is being sent, ie. Email or Push</li>
<li>Merge Tag – dynamic content, ie. {user_email} or {post_permalink}</li>
</ul>
<p>You can use them in any combination, adding as many Notifications as you want. They can be sent to multiple Recipients with the content you write.</p>
<p>The process is simple:</p>
<ul>
<li>You select the Trigger</li>
<li>Compose your message with Merge Tags</li>
<li>Set Recipients</li>
<li>Save the Notification</li>
</ul>
<p>From now on the Notification is working. Test it out and add more!</p>
<h4>PERFECT FOR DEVELOPERS</h4>
<p>The Notification plugin is easy to set in the WordPress Admin, but it’s even easier to extend with some sweet API.</p>
<p>You can create your own Triggers with any WordPress action. If you do in your code <code>do_action( 'my_plugin_doing_awesome_thing' )</code> you can create a Trigger out of it.</p>
<p>This allows you to use the Notification plugin as a notification system in your own plugin or theme. How? Well, because of two things:</p>
<ul>
<li>You can easily load it by copying the plugin files and including <code>load.php</code> file. A function known from Advanced Custom Fields plugin.</li>
<li>You can white label the plugin with just one function which is shipped in the plugin’s core. For free.</li>
</ul>
<p>How easy extending the Notification plugin is? Let’s see:</p>
<ul>
<li>Adding another Merge Tag to existing trigger – 1 line of code</li>
<li>Creating custom Trigger – one intuitive class definition and registration with a single method call</li>
<li>Defining Global Merge Tag – 1 line of code</li>
<li>Creating new Extension – we have a <a href="https://github.com/BracketSpace/Notification-Extension-Boilerplate/" rel="nofollow ugc">Boilerplate</a> ready for you to start hacking</li>
</ul>
<p><a href="https://docs.bracketspace.com/notification/developer/general" rel="nofollow ugc">See the developer documentation</a> if you don’t believe us.</p>
<h4>DEFAULT RECIPIENTS</h4>
<p>The plugin comes with few registered by default recipient types for Email Carrier:</p>
<ul>
<li>Email address or Merge Tag – free type email address or a Merge Tag</li>
<li>Administrator – takes an email from General Settings page</li>
<li>User – takes an email from WordPress user profile</li>
<li>Role – notify all Users having selected role at once</li>
</ul>
<h4>DEFAULT TRIGGERS</h4>
<p>These are already defined in plugin’s core and are ready to use. You can enable or disable them on the Settings page.</p>
<p>WordPress:</p>
<ul>
<li>Available updates – sent as often as you set them, ie. every week</li>
</ul>
<p>Post Type:</p>
<ul>
<li>Published post notification</li>
<li>Post added to database notification</li>
<li>Post drafted (saved as a draft) notification</li>
<li>Updated post notification</li>
<li>Post send for review (pending post) notification</li>
<li>Post approved (pending to publish) notification</li>
<li>Post moved to trash notification</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Taxonomy term created notification</li>
