<h4>Step 1: Configure Optimizely Mail Settings and Default Mail Settings =</h4>
<p>To start using the plugin, navigate to the <strong>Mail Settings</strong> tab and enter your Optimizely SMTP credentials + default<br />
mail service details.</p>
<p>The <strong>Optimizely Mail Configuration</strong> section sets the mail settings for email events that will be sent through<br />
Optimizely Campaign.<br />
The <strong>Default Mail Configuration</strong> section sets the mail settings for email events that will be sent through the default<br />
mail service in WordPress. The Default From Email and the Default From Name have initial values and should only be updated if you are certain that<br />
you need to use a different From Email address.</p>
<p>Filling out these settings is necessary to start sending emails through Optimizely Campaign.</p>
<h4>Step 2: Set Up Newsletter Settings</h4>
<p>Set up your Opt-in Process in Optimizely Campaign and make sure that Confirmation Page URL includes the <strong>bmrecipientid<br />
** and **bmrecipientlistid</strong> query parameters.<br />
Once the Opt-in Process is set up, go to the <strong>Newsletter Settings</strong> tab in the Optimizely Campaign plugin page, provide<br />
the necessary information for newsletter processing. The necessary information is a recipient list authorization code<br />

and <strong>Other Event Settings</strong> tabs and select the event emails you want to send via Optimizely Campaign. The unselected<br />
events will go through the default WordPress mail service.</p>
<h4>Step 4: Add the Newsletter Form to a Page or Post =</h4>
<p>After configuring the newsletter settings, copy the shortcode provided by the plugin and paste it into any page or post<br />
where you want the newsletter subscription form to appear.</p>

confirmation page set up in your site.</p>
<h4>Step 6: Start Accepting Subscriptions</h4>

and unsubscribe to your newsletter seamlessly whether they\’re a guest or a WooCommerce customer.</p>
