Hi there,

I know it’s most likely not going to happen but is there an easier way to send batch emails?

Not currently, although it can be done a little differently than mentioned above.

If they find the registrations using whichever method they prefer, eg:

Event Espresso -> Events -> {hover over event} -> Registrations.

or

Edit the event and click on the reg list icons for a specific datetime/ticket.

They can then select the registrations from there, pick the template (and edit the content of the template on the fly) and send the batch message from there.

Although, it’s still not a one-click email like it was in EE3.

They also say the automated notification message plugin won’t work as the message is different every time prior to the event happening.

I’m not sure why that means they can’t use the Automated Upcoming Event Notifications (AUEN for short) add-on as they can either create custom templates for the add-on and select them or (with a little customization to the template) pull in a custom value from the event within the template and just edit that per event, meaning it’s the same template but pulls the content directly from a custom field.

It depends on which specific details change in the template which method works best (or indeed at all), but having a unique message template for each event is possible with the AUEN add-on.

If they can add more details on what they need to change I can let you know if it’s possible through the templates themselves etc.
