Hey all, was wondering if anyone can help me out with the following:
I am transferring over to MailChimp instead of JetPack for notifying followers of new posts by email...unfortunately, my followers/subscribers and I have found the JetPack subscription emails to be REALLY unreliable and only about 1/4 of the subscribers ever make it onto the list after clicking subscribe...so I set up a MailChimp account, created a list, put a subscribe form in the sidebar, and created a newsletter...all going well. I am waiting on just one more person to transfer over to the new MailChimp subscription list (if they want), but once they do, I want to be sure that they are not all being emailed 2x for each post (1 from MailChimp, 1 from JetPack).
Now, I suppose I could just deactivate the JetPack Subscriptions feature, but that would also remove the ability for users to subscribe to comments, right? I basically want the best of both worlds: emails only from MailChimp, and some way to allow people to subscribe to their comments.
Any suggestions?
Any help is greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.
