CL Simplest SMTP


I've been using Carlos's SMTP plugin for WordPress, and honestly, it's exactly what I needed. Super easy to set up, no complicated menus or unnecessary extras. Within minutes, I had it up and running, and it fixed all my email delivery issues like a charm.



The best part? It's lightweight and doesn't slow down the site, which is a big win. Plus, it works perfectly with providers like Gmail and Outlook—I haven’t had a single issue since installing it.



If you're looking for something simple, effective, and hassle-free, this is the plugin for you. Great job, Carlos!


Fantastic!


Great plugin for configure your own SMTP mail server. Simple, easy to install and works fine. And the best feature, you can define the data in variables in your wp-config.php. 



It's an excellent choice for me.


Excelent plugin to configure the SMTP server mail


Carlos nails it!!



We are pleased to have this simple plugin without the useless options that others add.Thank you!!

The WordPress Cron implementation needs web visits to be triggered regularly.
If you don’t want to depend on the possible visits, or need a more accurate cron requests, it’s easy to setup the Linux crontab to replace the WP-Cron system.
Simply disable the WP-Cron adding the constant DISABLE_WP_CRON to the wp-config.php file, and create a new crontab line with <code>wget</code> or <code>curl</code> commands fetching the wp-cron.php URL of your blog.
But for WordPress MultiSite installs you will need one crontab line for each blog and, if you have many blogs, it is not simple to maintain and configure all the cron calls.
Also, there is a risk to overlap requests, possibly affecting server performance or WordPress behaviour.
The aim of this plugin is to provide a method to implement Linux cron requests for WordPress MultiSite with only one line in the Linux crontab.
This only one request points to the main blog cron URL, but with special arguments, ensuring a controlled and private cron requests.
Then, from the main blog is performed a propagation process, calling one by one all the network blogs (also with privacy URL arguments).
In the network settings of this plugin you can setup the frecuency of this process, the time between each blog cron calls, estimate all the process duration to avoid overlapping, consulting amount of time of all cron processes, etc.
Obviously, this configuration depends of your number of blogs, the desired frecuency of cron calls and/or the performance capabilities of your server, so you will need some testing to achieve the proper parameters.

MultiSite System Cron

This is really slick. I had been setting a separate cronjob for every site on my network. Now I can just set one cron job. Something like this should be in core. I'm surprised that it's not more popular.

No more need to set cron job for every network site

For WordPress MultiSite installs, allows accurate and private system crontab requests instead of classic WP-Cron.
