STILL no text wrap allowed around images
-
MailPoet, you keep locking all threads in this forum, that raise a serious problem about post formatting: specifically, re: the ability you offered in version 2, wrapping text around images, that you took away in version 3. This sends a bad message, that customer feedback — totally unaddressed and unresolved — is banned if you don’t like it, or if you strategically choose to ignore it (as if we’ll never notice).
As expressed here repeatedly and frequently, the whole point of the ability to send out e-mail newsletters from within WordPress, is to send posts as updates. (What else?) You should, and mostly do, leave it to us for deciding how much of each post — or, in many if not most cases, the whole post — will be delivered. Especially if it’s the whole post, your stubbornness to prevent text wrapping around left- or right-justified images, is totally baffling. The most you’ve said is that e-mail clients don’t honor text wrapping around images. This is 100% false, a total fabrication. It might not look perfect to you, but it ALWAYS works. And anyway, you are making a subjective judgment about “prettiness,” when the respectable thing to do, is simply offer your users the option to faithfully word wrap text around images, just as they appear in commonplace WordPress posts.
And anyway, what’s the alternative? Pretend like WordPress posts never wrap text around images? Then YOU look bad, for generating e-mails that don’t represent WordPress posts accurately (and it looks like you created the bugs).
AGAIN, just because you’ve seen occasional evidence of e-mails not faithfully wrapping text around images, doesn’t mean you should arbitrarily take away that choice from your paying customers.
Finally, at last, bring back the ONE feature that makes your service worse than its competition. You almost won the war; this stupid petty battle is blowing it for you. Remember: you used to offer this feature, easily, in version 2. Don’t be temperamental; just restore it. Will take you a few minutes of easy coding/restoration.
