FAQ

Q: Can you update the mailing list settings in the admin?
A: At the moment no but this will be coming in a future release.

Q: Will upgrading from version 1.x to version 2.x break it?
A: Yes! In version 1.x the mailman list information was stored in the main php file. With version 2.x the mailman list information is now accessable through the WordPress Admin menu. Because version 2.x is looking for the list info in a different spot you will need to update the settings in the WordPress Admin.

This Plug in works as promised. Great support from the author. Helpful hint for those that may come after later, be sure you have the correct URL for the ‘Mailman List URL’ which adds the subscribers to the list. For my host, it ended up being something similar to: https://mylist.host.net/mailman/admin/mylistname/members/add This plug in definitely works with WordPress 4.4.2 😉 Awesome!
