    How to email a member group in Umbraco?

    Hi all,

    We have a blog and want to extend it so that users can sign up and receive email updates whenever a new blog post is created. Does anybody have any idea about how to do this with Umbraco Members?

    Thanks,

    David

    David,

    Step 1: Create a member type in Umbraco back office with custom properties (FirstName, LastName, add etc...)

    Step 2: Create a form for creating new members.

    Step 3: Create a member group in Umbraco back office and assign the members.

    Step 4: As soon as a blog created then raise the event and retrieve the relevant members based on member group.

    Step 5: Send the email with the normal mailing functionality (You can attach members in BCC..)

    Is this what you are expecting ..?

    Hi Suman,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes, this is what I want to do however it's step 4 and 5 that I'm not sure about. How would I go about raising the event and subsequently emailing the member group?

    Thanks,

    David

    Hi David,

    May I know currently how you are maintaining blogs. Is this Umbraco package or else..?

    If it is umbraco, Then you go

    Constructor:
    public PublishEventsToHub() { ContentService.Publishing += CustomPublishingEventHandler;
    //ContentService.Created += CustomCreatedEventHandler;
    } private void CustomPublishingEventHandler(IPublishingStrategy sender, PublishEventArgs

    }
