Flexible Periodicity: You can schedule digests to be sent Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly.
Granular Scheduling: Includes options to select specific days of the week or months of the year for the dispatch.
Dynamic Tag System: Supports a wide range of placeholders to personalize content, such as:
{points_balance}: Displays the user’s current points for a specific type.
{achievements_earned}: Lists recently earned achievements.
{rank_title}: Displays the user’s current rank.
Shortcode Support: Email content can execute standard WordPress and GamiPress shortcodes, allowing for highly complex layouts.
Multisite Support: Fully compatible with WordPress Multisite environments, including data centralization features.
Because sending hundreds or thousands of emails simultaneously can crash a server or trigger spam filters, GamiPress implements a gradual sending process.
Infrastructure: It relies on wp-cron.php. If your site has low traffic, the cron might not trigger reliably; in such cases, it is recommended to set up a “Real Cron Job” via your hosting control panel (cPanel/Plesk).
Email Delivery: The plugin uses the standard wp_mail() function. For optimal deliverability, it is technically recommended to use an SMTP plugin (like WP Mail SMTP) to ensure digests don’t land in spam folders.
No Frontend: This plugin is entirely backend-driven; there are no frontend blocks for users to “view” digests on the site (though they can manage notification preferences if you use the Email Settings block).
Cron Dependency: If digests aren’t sending, the first technical check is always the DISABLE_WP_CRON constant in your wp-config.php file.
