<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin connects to third-party Email Marketing Service (EMS) APIs to synchronize subscriber data when an EMS integration is configured. The plugin only connects to these services when users explicitly configure their API credentials in the plugin settings.
When an EMS connection is configured, the plugin sends subscriber information (email address and optional first name) to the selected email marketing service each time a user submits a subscription form.

NewsmanApp


Cea mai mare problemă la această integrare este modul de comunicare între website și serverele newsman; din ce am reușit să deduc din analizele interne pe câteva conturi/servere/domenii diferite, pare să fie o problemă că serverul lor este prea încet în captarea și procesarea de date pentru activitatea utilizatorilor, iar din acest motiv când ai mini spike-uri de trafic (chiar și 50+ utilizatori), îți blochează și ție website-ul pentru că serverul tău așteaptă după serverul newsman să confirme primirea de date pentru fiecare sesiune generată/actualizată/etc.; anterior problema aceasta apărea la 100+ unici, acum bănuiesc că s-a mărit numărul de clienți, dar infrastructura / puterea computațională a rămas aceeași.



Am raportat la asistența tehnic această problemă (mail și github) și au dat vina pe serverul unde este website-ul, doar că problema este că același lucru l-am pățit la 3 conturi diferite, chiar dacă fără integrarea lor website-ul duce spike-uri de 1000 fără nici o problemă și zeci de comenzi pe secundă...



Pentru cine dorește să folosească în continuare, le recomand să dezactiveze integrarea când trimit un newsleter!


foarte subperformant
