I need a way to send an automatic follow up email to all who attended an event. I realize there are Newsletter batch templates, but I really need to automate the send after an event, similar to how the Automated event reminder template works, however, rather than set number of days before the event, it sends a number of days after the event. I need to be able to use event specific shortcodes to pull in the information. Is there any way to accomplish this? Is it possible to register my own custom message types?

Hi,
This is something we want to add eventually. If you need this now it would require some custom development. What you could do is start with a copy of the Automatic Upcoming Messages plugin, changes its class names, and reverse engineer it so its logic does everything after the event instead of before the event.
Here’s a link to the documentation for registering new message types:
https://github.com/eventespresso/event-espresso-core/blob/master/docs/E–Messages-System/registering-message-types.md
There’s more to this than just adding new message types though because it will require new logic & cron tasks to check for events/datetimes that have ended, then new cron tasks to generate and send those messages after the event.
