Thank you, @picocodes, I have discovered some of these but I have more questions to ask you. Judging by the speed of your reply and the extensive documentation, this plugin looks very promising. Thanks again.

I have a couple of more questions:

• Is it possible to make subscription and unsubscription a two-step process where the user receives an e-mail and confirms the choice by clicking on a link?
• When a subscriber decides to unsubscribe by entering the e-mail and clicking the unsubscribe button, the address is “unsubscribed” but not removed from the list. That makes it impossible for the visitor to subscribe again using the same e-mail. Attempting to do so results in a message: “You are already subscribed to the newsletter, thank you!” Therefore, deleting the e-mail address from the list may solve that problem. How can that be achieved? Or is there a different solution? The one-step unsubscribe process will also allow anyone to unsubscribe others whose e-mail address they know. Not a robust process.
• If the subscribers want to add their first and last names after I import the e-mail list from my previous plugin, there is no way I can see other than canceling the subscription and subscribing again. Is my assessment correct? Even then, the second item will prevent them from doing so. A proverbial catch-22 situation!

Thank you,

Cemal

I found the double opt-in for subscribing for the first time, but have not found the same for unsubscribing from the list.

Oh, I found another thing that the double opt-in subscription requires your premium service. Is that correct? I found the place to create that form, but I see a message that asks me to activate my license. This kind of information may be good to present up front before a potential user spends time to discover them only to find out one has to subscribe to a paid plan.

The search continues!

Hi @acekin,

I’m not sure where you saw that double opt-in requires a paid plan. Please take a look at our documentation since everything you’ve asked is documented and available in our free plans.

Not for double opt-in to subscribe, but I followed the steps to set rules based on conditions and saw the screen at the following link:

Maybe I followed the wrong steps. I would like a few relatively simple things:

1. Double opt-in subscription and unsubscription
2. After confirmation of the unsubscribe request, instant removal of the record
3. A simple note triggered by publishing a new post be sent to subscribers well under 500

Is it possible to do these with the free version of the plugin? I tried searching for double opt-in unsubscribe but apparently what I found and followed may not be the correct path.

1. https://noptin.com/guide/email-subscribers/double-opt-in/ and https://noptin.com/guide/email-subscribers/unsubscribing/#comment-34420

2. Not possible in free version.

I will follow the instructions and see how I can deal with the canceled but not deleted entries.
