[nodebb-plugin-emailer-postmark] Postmark Integration
-
Starting v0.3.0, NodeBB will require a third party emailer to send emails on its behalf. This plugin allows NodeBB to use the Postmark service to send emails.
Installation
npm install nodebb-plugin-emailer-postmark
Be sure to activate the plugin in the admin panel and set up the proper API key.

FML.
I'm going to use this today. Wish me luck. Which reminds me, I need to edit those email templates. Do they support HTML?
-
Nice!
Okay, and I've never heard of andrewbars? Is this like a bleeding-edge state-of-the-art framework?
-
Oh, never... mind. I just figured it out haha, I'm so slow. >.<

I know this is going to hurt but here goes, I do not see any where to email my users I have set up the postmark server pasted the API and restarted my site, I have looked at the help section on postmark but it's all about codes not stuff for none devs like me.

Hey @StuartH -- the emailer plugin is for emails like new user registration and password reset emails. They are fully automated.
At this time, we are not planning to add in functionality for you to email your users, so you would have to manage your own email mailing list (using something like mailchimp)

@StuartH I'm nice
https://github.com/akhoury/nodebb-plugin-mailchimpthis will subscribe your newly registered users to a MailChimp-List of your choice, as for your already-registered users ... oh well, here's a half-assed node.js program https://gist.github.com/akhoury/8294882 that will generate a CSV list of your existing users, which you can easily import to the same list on MailChimp.
ps: I haven't tested this plugin since 0.2.0 .. so, handle with care
EDIT: I just read that you mentioned you're not a developer, well, it's still easy to generate the list:
if you need help let me know, maybe ill make it a plugin.# this is assuming you're on a linux or a Mac machine cd NodeBB/node_modules mkdir temporary_crap cd temporary_crap wget https://gist.github.com/akhoury/8294882/raw/2db16f4ea5dca49fd1546e1638a451fbe624ca7d/nodebb.emails.js npm install async npm install fs-extra node nodebb.emails.js # wait for it to be done, then cp emails.csv ~/Desktop/emails.csv cd .. rm -rf temporary_crap

@bentael thank you very much, I will ask the guys to install on to my instance, and yes I can not code yet so if you had the time to make the additional plugin I would be grateful. I am looking to start learning coding, I know a little html but that's it atm, looking at the local collages to learn because if I try from home I will be easily distracted 3 teenagers, 1 wife, 1 dog, 1 cat and a business to run
