It’s not loading, what’s wrong?

Firstly, this is only for WordPress (Network too!) running BuddyPress. Check you have these installed correctly. Then, check you have activated the plugin.

What does “Send as single thread?” mean?

With this ticked, a single message will be sent with everyone as a recipient.
With this un-ticked, each member will receive an individual message from you.

Please note, that a message as a single thread will mean every member will also see every reply.

Sending to more than 100 members in a single thread is currently not supported

Unfortunately it is not currently possible to message more than 100 people in a single thread. This is to ensure that the system remains stable. A future version should hopefully include support for this.
