<p>This plugin works with the free GrabThatFeed(TM) service to subscribe your visitors to your RSS feed, by issuing Chrome Desktop Notifications when new posts are published on your feed. The advantage of this free service over regular RSS is that it makes your RSS feed available to non-savvy visitors who do not use an RSS reader. Your users don’t actually have to even know what RSS is.<br />
With this plugin, you just enter your feed ID, and the embed code is planted on your pages automatically.<br />
Alternatively you can use the included shortcode tags bto include it on a specific page.</p>
<h3>Changelog ===2.0 =* Replaced embed code with version 4</h3>
<h3>Changelog ===1.9 =* Replaced embed code with version 2</h3>
<p>1.8 =* Instead of linking to the form in a seperate window, The plugin now uses a direct iframe to a customized form on grabthatfeed.com, so for the WP site admin, the process is seamless.</p>
<p>1.7 =*first release after testing</p>
<h3>Arbitrary section</h3>
<p>The plugin itself is a simple way to include the GrabThatFeed embed code in your WordPress blog.<br />
It allows the user to embed the code in the wordpress template, so it appears on all pages.</p>

<p>This plugin sends email-notifications to a list of subscribers (email address) whenever a new post is published. The list of subscribers is separated from the list of WordPress users.</p>
<p>To allow users to subscribe to the mailing-list, a widget is included that can be placed in the sidebar. The headline and a text of the widget can be modified and are displayed before the email-input field and the send button. The widget uses ajax to submit the entered e-mail address.</p>
<p>Within the administration area you get a reactive and clean overview of all subscribers and some additional settings, that fits perfectly into the user-experience of WordPress. You can delete or add subscribers manually as well as change the subject and body of the notification-email.</p>
<p>Sending the emails is regulated in jobs. A job is always responsible for sending emails to one new post. The job starts sending emails a minute after the post was published. Every job can be cancelled. The number of emails send within a run of the job can be modified in the options. The job is automatically deleted, once an email was send to all subscribers.</p>
<p>This plugin is open source and of course available on <a href="https://github.com/nstaeger/wp-post-email-notification" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>.</p>
