Thank you for your answer. Maybe you could be more specific about what features will not work for non-English languages. If I understand you correctly, the title readability and content readability section will not work but, will everything regarding the focus keyword work?

And I have a second question. I find your plugin, compared with other commercial available plugins, very very good. I’m really impressed. And it is free, and because of that, it sounds too good to be true.

I’m worried that such a project, with the complexity that it has maybe will be discontinued in the future because it does not produce income for the developers. I’m very happy that the plugin is free, but I would be less worried if I knew that you have a business model to guarantee the survival of the plugin.

Apologizes about my bad English, I hope you understand what I mean.

Regards.

As far as I know, asking them to confirm is not enough. You have to recollect the consent of each of them for the future use, and only resending the activation email is not enough, because the user does not “consent” explicitly to the use of their data and you don’t have this consent stored in your db.

An option could be the following:

0.- Adapt your register form to the GDPR with the new checkbox (it has to be unchecked), as explained here: https://beta.docs.mailpoet.com/article/252-how-to-add-a-checkbox-field-to-mailpoet-form

0.1.- (find a solution for the bug with the checkbox that I mention here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/field-for-gdpr-acceptance/)

1.- Prepare a landing page with the form to register to the newsletter.

2.- Prepare a newsletter to ask all your users asking them to register again, with the new form.

3.- Send the newsletter and after sending delete all your subscribed users from the list.

The new subscribed users will to have to check the consent checkbox, and the consent will be stored by mailpoet in the local wp table (if we manage to find a solution for the bug mentioned in the other thread).

Yes I know what you are thinking: delete all my users? Well, in the case of a newsletter mailing list, as of 25 Mai you are not allowed to mail them if you don’t have the explicit consent. And if you didn’t had a checkbox in your form, then you do not have the consent.

Regards.

Hi!

I’m worried about this topic too. In theory it is not very difficult. You have only to add a checkbox to allow the user to give explicit consent to the subscription, and add a little bit text explaining the purpose of the collect form (some say that this is optional).

The status of the consent box is saved in the wp database, and here is where the thing goes a little bit weird. There are a couple of problems at this time, as I reported in this other thread:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/field-for-gdpr-acceptance/

I’m waiting for a solution too.

Regards.

Ok, I did a couple of tests, and I found the following.

The custom field is working properly (the content of the field is transfered to the wp_mailpoet_subscriber_custom_field table), when the users that registers to a newsletter IS NOT member of the site.

If the user is already a member of the worpresssite, then the value of the custom field is never moved to the wp_mailpoet_subscriber_custom_field table, and remains always in the unconfirmed_data field of the wp_mailpoet_subscribers table.

Is this a bug, or the intended behaviour?

Yes, it is possible, as explained here:

https://beta.docs.mailpoet.com/article/252-how-to-add-a-checkbox-field-to-mailpoet-form

BUT

If I understand it correctly, the value of the custom_field is stored in the database table “wp_mailpoet_subscribers”, in the field “unconfirmed_data” until the user confirms with the link provided in the optin email.

Then, I suppose the value of the “unconfirmed_data” is moved into the table “wp_mailpoet_subscriber_custom_field”.

But this is not happening in my case. When the user opts in by clicking on the confirmation link, the value of the field “unconfirmed_data” is deleted, but nothing is inserted in the wp_mailpoet_subscriber_custom_field table.

Is this a bug or the intended behaviour? We need the value to be stored in the wp_mailpoet_subscriber_custom_field table, because it is necessary to prove that the user had checked the checkbox.

Thanks!

Hi Herfred,

thank you for your answer. There was a configuration problem with the ssl certificate, and it is solved now. There was also mixed content in the posts (old images referenced with the http prefix), and that is fixed also.

Now the web page is reported as secure, the html is there, but the home page remains blank…

It is a mystery for me…

Thank you for your help.

Dear Friends,

I’m also very interested in the social login feature to my mobile app users. I’m using at the moment a JWT plugin to manage the authentication with my wordpress installation (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/jwt-authentication-for-wp-rest-api/), and it works quite well, but there is no possibility to do a social login.

It would be perfect if I could add the possibility to the user to register in an easy way with social login, but I did not find any plugins with this feature.

I will be very thankful if you can provide information about how to do this.

Best regards,
