375348 Wordpress email template II
N/A
Pagado a la entrega
- My client has a blog posted on Wordpress.
- We use MailChimp for weekly and monthly newsletters
- We want to repurpose blog content to be used on weekly emails.
- Mailchimp has a feature that allows administrator to import a web page to be mailed out. I want to create a hidden WordPress page that mocks up a weekly html email using excerpts from the week's posts.
- The page copy will also auto-fill several other content sections with posts of various categories - for instance, the most recent recipe posted will be pulled, and entered into the email template, or most recent 'today's inspiration' post will be pulled, and inserted with graphic.
- Coder should have extensive Wordpress experience, and experience with email style (old school) html.
* Designed as a WordPress blog template using Wordpress functions
* Output needs to be 100% HTML, with no JavaScript.
* Output must display well in all email clients - coder must be familiar with peculiarities of email HTML
* Must degrade gracefully to text-only clients.
* All work - comments, variables, object references - and communications must be in English
* consolidate all CSS code to inline or single intra-head style block
