Hello y'all.
I need a newsletter on my WordPress blog. I can create a newsletter form that inserts the validated email into temporary members table and email a random confirm link to the subscriber. They would have to click the link and send the confirm code through $_GET to get into the activated members table after checking for duplicates/etc. I created a plugin that would display the registered emails in admin area. The owner of website will copy.paste into his Outlook in order to send. The emails, confirm code are all escaped against mysql injection.
My other choice is phplist. However, I don't like it. I read bad reviews pointing the complexity when there is a problem and lack of support. All I need is gathering the emails into a table and displaying for the owner of website.
I can't pay for a service. Could someone share their opinion on this? I prefer my own code as of right now. My experience with web development is about a year.
Thanks in advance.
