    • Note: a subscriber can be in one or more of these lists.

    + a generic one for marketing.
  • you can’t delete the WordPress user list it’s mandatory

  • Newsletter Automation : requirements
  • 1, A populated subscriber list for each membership level
  • 2, A Post Category for each active Membership level
  • 3, A page configured to display the Posts.

  • Create a Newsletter template that can be duplicated/cloned
    Customised a clone for each active Membership Level

All of this be set up before we go onto creating the page
NB: The page can not be added to the main menu until the magic part 2 has been implemented and tested.


Create the a Page for the Newsletter Blog (it think this need to be fairly generic name ) as the same page will be used for multiple membership levels, We will use conditional filters and blocks to display the right content to each memberships level
how to we achieve this? This method may seem complicated and to be fair it is.(a bit).

  • Pre requisites-
    Posts per page Add a Post Category name for each membership level. (boxercise, 5ynergy etc)
    Create a Blog post for each membership level and assign the post category for the membership level .
  • Building the page.
    we’ll first create group of blocks then duplicate it once for each membership level.
    + an extra group for the free level and the general public = marketing promotions and freebies.
  • create the first group , within that group add a heading then add a “query loop” block” then close off the group ( but you can add as many blocks as you want within the group
  • edit the query block – “start blank or select one of the layouts, customise the colours and tweak the layout
    Test – preview the page -(note it will show all of the blog post- that’s fine) once you happy with the layout.
  • Duplicate the Group – one copy for each membership level+ one extra.
  • This next step will may life easier in the future
    go to the top Group and rename it to a membership level e.g “Boxercise”
  • for each remaining Group edit its name using a different membership level.
    • If you were to preview the page you’ll have the same list of blog posts shown multiple times.
  • Now for the Magic; Part 1
  • go to the first group “Boxercise” click on the query loop block
    in the right side look for “filters” and add the post category name for the membership level.
    the content inside the Block will dynamically update.it ‘should show at least one Boxercise article.
  • Repeat the the process for each groups query block.
  • Once completed the do test preview, it will show one article per membership level.
  • If one group didn’t display an article, you’ll have figure that out.
  • When all Group content is displaying correctly we can move onto Part 2 .

  • The Magic, part 2
  • We add in the conditional Logic to display one of the Groups
    the Boxercise members will be able to logon an vAll of this be set up before we do part 2 -iew the “Boxercise articles
