email subscribers cron job not working (again)

Hello,

Sorry for the inconvenience you had.

Did you find anything related to cron into your server error log?

Hi, I don’t see error logs. I operate a blog under Managed WordPress Hosting by WPBLOGHOST, so I don’t have access to server files.

Hello,

Ok.

Can you please copy cron url and hit from your browser and let us know whether it works fine or not.

If not, I suggest you to reduce the per hour email count from Email Subscribers > Settings > Cron section and check once again.

Hi Malay,
I copied CRON URL from settings and pasted into browser. This is the result:
{“es_remaining_email_count”:0}

I’ve tried reducing the email cont per hour, but it has made no difference.

Really puzzled as to why it worked fine until 3 months ago and not now.

I’m desperate for my 3500+ email subscribers to receive important communications from me. Is there anything else you can suggest? Maybe another way to send bulk communications? Cron-job.org isn’t an option, as I’ve tried it before and it started sending old emails.

I’d be most grateful for your advice.

Hello,

>> As you received this json data means your cron job worked and there are no email in queue at this moment.

So, I don’t think any issue with cron jobs.

I would request you to create a test notification and send it to small group via cron job and check whether it works or not.

So I tested it with just 1 email address (mine) and the cron job worked. But then I set up a Newsletter to go to 3,600 recipients and only the first 268 emails were sent. I’m really upset, as this newsletter was about a third-party limited time promotion, which would have given me a much needed income boost. ??

Pasted Cron URL into browser and it just sits and and does nothing. Then the browser resets or “Service Unavailable”.

Instructions say I don’t need cPanel.

Subscriber lists are minimum 10,000 per state. I need to send to all 50 states! Host allows 500 per hour. Program set for 300.

Can I stack jobs? Starting list is 12,600 subscribers. Populated states may have 25,000 or more.

My email is now unable to send from any account. Says I’m over a hundred emails over the allowed limit of 500. That needs to be cleared. Talked with hosting provider already. Change in email limits require hosting change – 4 to 10 times more expensive!

Need complete documentation for this plug-in on how to work with this.
Looked at premium but there is no mention of any difference in how it runs cron jobs.

If I stop/delete this cron job, how to send the unsent part of the list is a question. How can it be set up so it sends the number selected every hour until the list is completed?

Wish List:

To be able to see how many sent and size of list. Where the controls are for each cron job? How many emails in each group. The ability to send partial lists – choosing which emails to send. To send the unsent or failed emails in a list.

Documentation. Documentation. Documentation.
